    Not getting excited yet. As it has yet to be announced if webOS 2.0 will work on all devices, like my feeble Sprint Palm Pre and it’s 256MB ram.

    The real important stuff is under the hood. New APIs, etc will allow new apps to be written that will advance the abilities of the device. So yes, I’m excited for the future including new devices.

    Maybe I am missing it. The screen size was small from the beginning. Today’s market is large screen. I do like the way the Palm Pre functions compared to others but with not a hole lot of apps, no SD capability it is tight. I have been with Palm for about 8 years and I was hoping they were going to present something that was going to WOW the competitors. Palm Pre 2 seems just like a big much needed update

    Is this phone better than it’s predecessors? Yes. But, we can’t help thinking that this phone can only be an update of a basic webOS device until a variety of models are developed and debut next year. The Palm Pre 2 will aid HP (Palm) bridge the gap between this year’s holiday season and next year’s selling season. Also, it will allow them to continue to tweak the UI for their up and coming webOS products.

    What’s good about this phone? It does everything easier and quicker than any other phone presently on the market. Evferyone who has had one knows every other UI is a step down.

    On the flip side, there are some drawbacks. For instance, it currently lacks some common features: Voice Commands: Visual Voice Mail: Camera Zoom: Email Batch Functions and Threading: Instant Page Top & Bottom: Dual Cameras: and others. (There are reports that Visual Voice Mail is coming very soon.)

    My novice advise to HP is to provide something no one else has and that will get people compelled to buy their webOS devices products apart from their UI.

    iOS has everything Apple.

    Android has everything Google.

    WP7 has everything Microsoft.

    What does HP have to offer? And, printers are not going to sell webOS. One suggestion is they should provide a syncing portal: I call it “webOSync.” Connect to your computer and sync everything you want. Knowing Palm, they will take it to a whole new level and beyond. But, that still falls short.
    HP still needs to find it’s identity. What will everthing HP mean to webOS?
