Previous Coverage:
Above, we compare the multitasking prowess of the new Palm Pre Plus on Verizon to the original Palm Pre on Sprint. How much of a difference does that extra RAM make? Preliminary results are in and the difference is: a lot.
We can't tell if maybe Palm sent us a ringer for a review unit, but you can see above that, no fooling, it's 13 cards on the original Pre vs 50 on the Pre Plus.
Yes, the Pre Plus did slow down quite a bit when we started getting over 30(!) cards, but it kept on opening apps like a champ and never brought us the "Too Many Cards" error.
What do you think?
