Palm Pre: May not be coming!?!

So the many of us who watched CES 09 and say the unveiling of the new Palm Pre, got pretty excited. It is a far better improvement from previous Palm devices. A lot of journalists were actually surprised. They thought the mobile device that would win over CES would be the new Nokia n970; which is not due to release until a few more months. The Pre, however, stood out in the crowd.

Well, sources have informed me that the Pre may not even come!

Another thing many of us know is that soon after CES. Apple, got their mutlitouch function of the iphone pattened. For those of you who do not know what that means. It means that any other company that uses multitouch functions on a touchscreen mobile device similiar to that of the iphones will be pursued in legal charges.

Well, the Pre has multitouch BUT the Pre was already scheduled to release before Apple got the patten for their multitouch. This is pretty much a tactic from Apple to knock out the competetion. They know that the Pre is going to be big, bigger then the G1 and possibly gain more sales then the iphone. This is a way to stop that from happening. The case is still being settled and as of this time I know little about the details. I will be investigating it further and update you on any change.

Hopfully Apple decides to drop the charges, because the Pre is going to bo the real game changer in the mobile world.
