George Clinton gives Palm some love at the Grammys 19

George Clinton with the Palm Pre Plus, backstage at the Grammys

Another celebrity-studded awards show means that Palm was again out in force behind the scenes rubbing elbows with the stars. And slapping the Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus into their hands. This time it was the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards, celebrating the best in popular music. The folks at Palm felt like rubbing it in that they got to meet music legends, so they posted 28 pictures of just that on ye olde Facebook.

So just who stopped by the Palm gift lounge? There’s the titular George Clinton, T-Pain, Randy Jackson, Greg Grungberg, Jamie Foxx, Lionel Richie, Kate Voegele, and Justin Bieber - just to name a few. Palm’s got the whole album up over on Facebook.

Why does the Pre look like it's covered in white powder after being touched by all those celebrities?

That makes me cringe as much as Flavor Flav showing up in a Sprint commercial.

I know Palm does pretty good with product placement on TV shows and maybe this helps with that, but I would rather see more TV ads. Also when is VZW even going to show the Pre/Pixi + in a TV ad?

I heard a radio ad for the Pre and Pixi Plus in the Washington DC market. Might be all the ad dollars WebOS gets.

Ha ha, you missed the latest post up on the front page? Not to mention the ad that was stuck on NFL.com during just about the entire football season?

Posted by Derek Kessler on Mon, 01 Feb 2010 11:41 pm EST

I haven't visited NFL.com on a regular basis, but seeing as Sprint has long been a major NFL sponsor (NFL app on the Pre) and Palm didn't announce the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus until last month, I don't imagine you saw many Pre Plus or Pixi Plus ads on NFL.com during just about the entire season.

"The folks at Palm felt like rubbing it that they got to meet music legends, so they posted 28 pictures of just that on ye olde Facebook." "felt like rubbing it"... ahem,hmmm what were they rubbing. I didn't see any pictures of that. LOL

Haha! Yeah I think he meant "rubbing it in".

George needs a "Who took da stone" App. Is the stone missing from his ring? Or is it a Underdog super energy pill ring?

Too bad they didn't have a flashlight app for him to run.

He is most definitely THE MAN! I spent a week in a hotel suite across the hall from his, what a character!

Now mobile phone is a very common tool, this pair of pictures can only show that a merchant in the hype, if you use the characters inside the game AION kinah advertise it might be better!
