Palm pre, supposed iPhone killer, is set to start June 6 in the United States, the post-rebate $ 199.99, and will only be available through Sprint, Palm said. Now the big question: Will this be enough to replenish the palm ’severely damaged the reputation of s and, more importantly, to give the iPhone by race for market share?
There is much to love about pre, its multitasking operating system with tight coupling to its users ‘contacts social networking. Sector gesture at the bottom of the screen, listen again to palm pilots, may be less than victory. He, however, seem well known to millions as asylum le ‘t have seen a palm in the last 5 years or longer.
The maker of personal digital assistance and a modern first player in smartphones, Palm has dropped the amazing grace when the PDA market has imploded early in the era of the smartphone. New investors and management have developed pre with the idea of giving the iPhone and Blackberry serious competition.
The exclusive carrier, Sprint, and was omitted from the cold of late and should see pre as its acquisition potential, too.
The strategy will work to?
We won ‘t know until Apple puts out what is common (and presumed) to be a new line of iPhones this summer. Pre ’sync start of s is positioned to beat Apple to the punch by two days if Apple plans to introduce its new iPhones at the beginning of his lecture as a director on 8 June
My guess was that new iPhones will be announced after the conference, but the exaggeration of pre palm may be too much for Apple to ignore.
Pre ‘introductory price of S $ 199.99 required by the two-year contract normally. The company will also provide a wireless charger for $ 69.99 additional.
Sales immediate evaluation of service plans can be an incentive for new customers choose a smartphone over the other, but in the longer term, applications become important. With the large number of applications available for iPhone, Apple appreciates the leadership that Palm has in the past had.
The big question will be if the palm and can recover if there is room for another major player in the smartphone market. The world of smartphone, previously divided into people and people Crackberry iPhone is about to become tighter. In a welcome manner.
