nice pics any rumored specs other than webos? screen size obviously a virtual keyboard nice and thin

LotusLord · 10-06-2009, 12:03 PM

There is NO WAY it could be that thin. Unless it's running on hearing aid batteries. Not to mention fitting all those radios in it (I count at least 4-CDMA, Bluetooth, Wifi and WiMax). It does look good, but I'd have to play with it before I could for sure give up a hardware keyboard.

Maybe its going to be powered via tesla over the airwaves

Thats true, and being that thin it would slip right out of your palm!

But then it wouldn't be a Palm?

FFFRRReeewNCH! That was a bad one kraski, but too funny!

Someone at Sprint must be 'dreaming' big or planning for April 1st ... but while stop at wafer thin, 21Megapixels and HD projector with 5.1 surround sound? I'd at least add a micro SD so I can store those hi-def movies!

eclair · 10-06-2009, 06:52 PM

Bingo, I would have to have that micro SD slot! It does seem like pie in the sky, but we can only dream.

well John Dvorak with pc magazine I think a computer guru in any event sid several months ago that his vision of the smartphone of the future would be a large screen display thin device with a 250gb silicon solid state drive and dockable withe the dock having a monitor and keyboard and the device would be the hard drive and cpu of your desktop and all your infor would be on the phone. The post would be a large step in that direction.
