From Matuk's site:

"Ooops, parece que hicimos algo antes de tiempo. Esperamos hayan podido ver los videos que presentamos de la nueva Palm, pero resulta que todavía no se tenía la autorización para ser mostrado… dentro de poco regresaremos con toda la información, precios detalles y mucho, mucho más."

"Looks like we jumped the gun on something. We hope you were able to see the videos we posted with the new Palm, but it turns out that there's no authorization to show it yet. We will soon come back with all the information, pricing, details and much much more"
In minute 1:50 (before the ambulance drives by) he's saying that since he already has the back cover off, you can see that there is a slot for a Micro SD card. It will be on sale on Telcel soon.
I want a manual one!!!!
hahahaha
The Sprint instructions don't work for Nextel. I went through the menu options in my Voice Mail and was not able to find a way to disable the instructions. Nextel's VM does allow you to skip the greeting AND the instructions by pressing #.
Oh goodie! If AT&T sells this they will continue to shoot themselves in the foot. Improve your network already!!!
No mention of VPN PPTP, IPSEC anywhere. I guess this means the Pre does not do VPN out of the box.
I love the interior as well! I also wish my car looked like that. Does not look like a Dodge interior at all, those I think are horrible.
Thanks for the review. I'm considering it but am very happy with SocialScope. The only thing TweetGenius seems to have over it is the search function, but even then I can't really say anything until I use it.
For $79.95 you get the same unlimited but you can also roam for free on 40 additional countries according to their site. This would be huge.

Oh and it also seems like the VoIP is sent over a VPN:
"The service will bypass carriers’ circuit-switched channels, sending voice as VoIP-based packets over carriers’ packet-based GPRS, EDGE or HSDPA data channels to a virtual private network (VPN) that in turn accesses the public Internet"

Talk about overhead!

The latency on EDGE will hurt the calls a lot, and losing a packet will cause problems to the voice unless they use a Skype like system where packet loss is not an issue and re-transmission is acceptable. The only problem is latency in the voice call will be higher. If it's livable I don't see many people, like me, complaining too much.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
