I totally agree...never would i have thought I would replace my diamond after getting all setup the way i liked it.. theme and all.. But the pre made me rethink everything...and am totally a pre convert.. even thought it cost me 30 bucks more a month..( had sero 500 ) to me its totally worth it..

All of the core things i used wm for i can do on the pre without effort..and it just works...lol

If you're coming from WinMo, WebOS is so much easier to work with. I had flash withdrawlas when I moved to the Pre. I was constantly flashing my Diamond and tweeking it that I felt I wasnt doing enought when I got the Pre. Now that I have had it since day one, I really like this phone and the new update had easied some of my pains. I wish for video and better connection with BT, but I can hold out. My wife has a Hero and I so perfer the Pre. I like the app store from Android and hope in time we get the same volume. The Pre is a very good phone, just too bad its not as famous as the Iphone, thats too bad. Congrats on the phone and there is alot of info here to making the Pre run better.

I love the pre and webos. Nothing comes close to multi-tasking to the degree that it does. Now dont get me wrong,i too love my windows mobile but at the moment it doesn't love me. Everyone raves about the hardware capabilities of the iphone. The pre damn there matches that. The multi-tasking of windows, webos is in my opinion,light years ahead of it. Then there's android, im not sure what makes it so special, i never understood and if someone can help i would appreciate it. Is it easy to develop for? I thought it wasn't created for cdma phones or was it the display type(capacitive/resistive)? To tell the truth outside of the apps, it really is nothing more than a windows mobile knock-off. Actually its worse,it doesnt match windows' multi-tasking/business abilities. Its just a bare bones OS with different UI's layered on top. Also, its (android) being used by alot of different phone manufacturers. It seems like deja'vu to me. I'm not saying android will fail,but relying on someone else to make your OS stable/user friendly/fun and productive is what made windows fall behind. The only thing that saved them is their marketshare and business aspects of its OS. In comparison Android doesnt have either. Say what you want about palm, they have a fanbase, a better OS in my opinion and business tools/software already in its OS. The pre's OS is much more user friendly and updates come quicker. If it took google this long to release eclair, which wasnt that great and palm is already about to include flash, i say everyone else should be worried.

the android is also linux. i loooooovvvvvveeeeeee linux. it resurrected my dying laptop that crashed with windows. but im in between, as i have posted all over the forums, the hero, droid, moment and pre. ill even through in the crackberry s2. but most likely will stay yellow and black so much for that
