4G, Cloud-based File Services and More.. From the Forums 9

by Robert Werlinger Fri, 26 Mar 2010 1:47 pm EDT

Here's some of the latest talk in the forums:

4G, 4G, Four Gee. With the announcement of the HTC EVO 4G on Sprint, many in the forum are convinced that Palm should release a phone with a 4G radio. Let's hope that battery technology jumps ahead a generation too.
Folks are loving the new ZumoDrive service and are sharing their experiences with it and other cloud-based file services. Maybe that 4G connectivity will come in handy after all?
With all of the recent bad news, a few tech publications have come out to say that Palm is finished. Our forum members disagree.
Speaking of the EVO, member benly52 isn't sold and is going to be keeping his Pre: "they will have to pry my PRE from my cold dead hands." Surely, he isn't alone.

Primero!

Great stuff indeed in the forums. Let's hope Palm's next Pre is 4G as well!

I'm surprised you haven't included Pogoplug.

It was the first app to play music, display pics, play music, and provide access to docs OTA from your hard drive at home.

It has some limitations but, it should be covered also.

"they will have to pry my PRE from my cold dead hands."

That comment was made by Popper668

...and they still won't get my PRE!

People are screaming "EVO Four Gee", because of the HUGE SCREEN.

Has nothing to do with the non-existent 4G radio waves.

Do nothing more than strap some Palm Pre Plus guts inside a metal shell w/ 4.3" screen... and I'll be screaming "HOLY SHIT! Long live Palm! webOS 4 Life!"

Palm Pre Plus guts are definitely good for another year. Especially when you get that huge metal shell to dissipate the heat from the 800MHz stock clock of the SAME processor they've got a ton of.

Just add screen. ;)

I'm staying with my PRE for now, but I'm certainly not happy to hear the CEO use his "10 Year Plan" for excuses.

I have to say I've been spending a lot of time on androidcentral, love that new 4G phone and I'm going to take a look as soon as it comes out.

I do believe WebOS is the superior OS, so I can see DRIOD OS Users importing WebOS to replace their OS, as PALM Will have to license WebOS or other Manufacturers to survive.
