More Palm Pre emulator videos emerge: universal search, calendar, and email (oh my)

Oh look, another set of Palm Pre / webOS emulator videos care of TheInvisibleMan of PalmPreForum.org. This time we get a new two-part Q&A session and a glance at the calendar, PDF viewer, phone, e-mail, and universal search, which as the name suggests not only searches locally on the phone but also lets you run that query through Google, Google Maps, Wikipedia, and Twitter -- something iPhone OS 3.0's local-only spotlight frustratingly lacks. That said, we can see ourselves being bothered by the apparent inability to open PDFs directly from the browser, and it looks like the email client might not group threads together. A major bummer if that's the case, but this is an early emulator, so we're holding onto the tiniest bit of hope that changes somewhere down the line. Like before, we've gone ahead and grouped all the new videos in a playlist after the break.

Too much...So excited...Waiting becoming difficult. Need Counseling.

Now hear me out with this little picky qualm about the interface:

What is the deal with that radius on the curved edges? It's huge! This will no doubt look good on a Pre - it DOES look damn good on the Pre...but what about other WebOS devices in the future? Will they be designed around the curves of the OS? I just can't seem to allow my eyes to like the way it looks is all...the color choices are awesome though.

Call me crazy :) This is something I have noticed, however. I guess it doesn't help that I'm just not all that impressed with the Pre to begin with.
