Runs very hot while charging, cant tansfer files via bluetooth, RUFKM!
Screen is absolutely beautiful. Web browser is fast to render. Very surprised there isnt more apps at launch, but thats why Im on this site, hoping some will come. Cant get into alot of the basic functions that I would like. Cant change ringtone for texts.

Anyone know what the effect of Synergy will do for custom ROMS? If the phone is updating daily and finds the OS has been altered, will it be bricked? I hope not but I have yet to read anything about custom ROMS. I know noone has had the OS to be able to create a ROM but Im hoping it can be done.

I will complain about small crap but I really like this phone.

I just picked one up as well - I only want my texts to vibrate so I can just turn the sound off - but still dumb.

My other gripes are:
1) No copy/paste from the browser (what good is copy/paste w/o that??)
2) No flash support yet
3) No tethering! Come onnnn 3rd party tethering app!

Re: Sprint Palm Pre

just checked the phone out a bit ago and man I would rather chill with cody and our 200 bucks of alcohol than spend it on the pre. I dunno maybe it grows on you but there is no simplicity on it. I spent 15 mins trying to figure out how to send a blank text. maybe I missed something but only way I at the time figured it out was after I put in a fake contact. then you have the choice of whatever lol. and what's a touch screen device with no on screen keyboard? for me the palm fails. im kinda sad if sprint really put all their stakes into this phone hoping to revive the company. wm devices all the way!

Re: Sprint Palm Pre

subscribed im interested to see what the reviews are and see if anybody successfully can A. tether with it and B. get it for the 299 price while retaining their sero plan.

Re: Sprint Palm Pre

Lol... you guys get a party with free alcohol and my Sprint store tells me, when I get there today, that they didn't even get a single one of them in stock.

Re: Sprint Palm Pre

sprint failed with the instinct bull **** and they're going in the same direction with the pre, the phone has more downs then up's, I will definitely stay with windows mobile, Touch pro 2 here I come!!!

And btw Ive loved your themes and cube skins on the vogue :)
