Time flies! Both my husband and I have been continuing to use the Palm Pre Plus on Verizon now for 4 weeks. And lucky me, they just released a new software version. Normally that’s nothing to write home about but in this case it is – it’s a big deal. I now have video recording on my Palm Pre cell phone. It can’t compare to my Flip HD , but it is great for capturing those impromptu moments that the little ones are always delivering.Equally exciting, the upgrade supposedly has the capability to run Flash (think all sorts of game and videos on the Web) that should be enabled in the near future.
After using is is for a few extra weeks, I must say that these 5 features really made both my husband and I like it – besides the sneaky mirror of course!
- The Palm Pre Plus size is perfectly “pocket-able” – smaller than my iPhone, seriously the size of my blush & compact.
- Having multiple apps run concurrently.My pooled messages – voice-mail, texts, and emails – all pushed to me even when the phone is locked. It’s weird, but they feel like they’re almost hand delivered.
- Video Capability.
- Flash on the camera (both my husband and I found ourselves taking tons of pictures with it – remember that awesome Disney Fireworks photo?)
- Slide Out Keyboard – makes the phone smaller overall which is a bonus
It’s definitely earned its way into my crazy life – and hopefully it will continue to make all that multi-tasking a little easier!

I think the flash on the camera would be the best feature for me. I always take tons of pics with my phone and they come out dark or blurry, but this sounds great! Thanks!
having a camera with a flash would be great
I like the video capability!
The multiple apps running concurrently would be great!
I love the Video Capability the best, thanks for the chance!
My grown daughter has one of these, and boy…am I green with envy! I only have a basic (phone calls only) pay as you go phone for emergency use.
I love it that it has video, best! So handy!
I wish my phone had Flash, not having it limits me to website I can view on my phone
The flash would definitely be my favorite feature…my phone takes horrible pictures and with 2 grandbabies & 3 Bengal Cats I take a lot of pictures so that would be awesome. Thanks so much for the offer.
I think it would be the layered calendar. I don’t have a smartphone and have been eyeing this think lately. Maybe…
I love all the apps&camera!

I just have a basic phone. I would love one like this were I can take and store pictures and music. Great phone – my fingers are crossed! Thanks!
I really like the video recording capability. My current phone does not have that. I have two young children and am often wishing I could have captured some funny moments on camera and have not been able to with my current phone.
I have a plain phone ( no picture options) and I would love one of these so I can take fast pictures of the grandkids! Thanks for a nice giveaway!
I love the idea of the Slide Out Keyboard!
Thanks for the giveaway!
the first thing that is good about your phone is that it is small, handy, and useful. though it’s size is not as big as other phones it can run several applications concurrently.
The video capability! I have none, can’t even view the ones people try to send me.
I love that the camera function has a flash. I hate how crummy the picture quality is on my current phone.

I like the slide out keyboard. If I have any trouble, my son sells Verizon
The slide out keyboard would be fantastic!! THANKS!
Slide Out Keyboard!
I like the slide-out keyboard best!
Video Capeability is awesome! Thanks for the chance! mogrill@comcast.net
To me, the small size is the best feature. After carrying around a diaper bag for years, it’s SOOOOO nice to be able to carry around things JUST for me. So I always have a very small purse, and it would be great to have essentials be small, too!
I really like that it can take videos.

I like that is has a app catalog and the layout of the phone.
I love the slide out keyboard.
Thanks for the giveaway…The Palm Pre Plus feature with the most utility that I could use in my daily life is the “3G Mobile HotSpot” app that enables web access to your Wi-Fi enabled devices.
I think the flash is the best so you can take better pictures!
I like the touchscreen function
I love the slide-out feature
id love the vz navigator feature that would be so awesome
having a flash on the camera sounds good
I like the video capability!
I like the slide out keyboard!
I like that it could be a portable wi-fi hotspot. Hubby would hate that. He thinks I spend too much time on the computer anyway. But what does he know?
The calendar
I like the camera.
I love the quality of the pictures. The flash is a great thing, probably the best part of this.
