Palm® Pre™
The phone that's truly living in real time
It's here, and you can only get it from Sprint. The gorgeous 3.1'' touchscreen lets you move seamlessly between open applications - email, maps, photos, websites and so much more. The slide-out QWERTY keyboard lets you be a texting machine, and the smooth, rounded design feels natural in your hand and comfortably small in your pocket.
The Palm Pre was the big winner at this year's Consumer Electronics Show, taking home both the Best in Show and the People's Voice Award. Now it's your turn to see what all the fuss is about.

Unique design and real sliding QWERTY Keyboard
Featuring a smooth, rounded ergonomic design and a physical keyboard that slides out only when needed, Pre is engineered to feel natural in the hand and comfortably small in the pocket.
Touchscreen
The bright touch screen is sharp and clear. Perfect for viewing web sites, photos and videos.
Gesture Area
The touchscreen extends to the bottom of the device so you can navigate through Palm webOS™ using special touch gestures.
Palm WebOS™
The first mobile platform which brings your information from the many places it resides - on your phone, at your work or on the web - into one simple, integrated view.
Activity Cards
Palm's revolutionary webOS™ lets you manage multiple applications at a time, unlike any other mobile platform today. It lets you keep multiple activities open and instantly flip from one to another using card view.
Linked Contacts
With Palm Synergy™, you maintain a single view by linking your contacts from a variety of sources, so accessing them is easier than ever. For example, if you have the same contact listed in your Outlook, Google and Facebook accounts, Synergy recognizes that they're the same person and links the information together, presenting it to you as one listing.
Layered Calendars
With Palm Synergy™, your calendars can be seen on their own or layered together in a single view, combining work, family, friends, sports teams, or other interests. You can toggle to look at one calendar at a time, or see them all at a glance.
Combined Messaging
See all your conversations with the same person in a chat-style view, even if it started in IM and you want to reply with a text message. You can also see who's active in a buddy list right from contacts, and start a new conversation with just one touch.
Combined Email
Check your Outlook email with Microsoft Direct Push Technology and HTML support. Get wireless email access to popular commercial POP3 and IMAP accounts like AOL, Gmail, and Yahoo! All your email accounts can be viewed together, or separately from one simple application. Synergy even lets you see IM presence directly from an email.
Universal Search
Simply start typing to begin searching your contacts, applications, Google, Google Maps, Wikipedia and Twitter. Universal search narrows down the possible results as you type, so it’s easier to find what you need.
Unobtrusive Notifications
When important things come up or new updates arrive, you'll receive notifications at the bottom of your screen. You will know what is going on without being completely interrupted or losing your train of thought.
Web Browsing
An incredibly fast browser brings you full websites the way they were meant to be seen.
