Palm pre

The new Palm^® Pre™ phone is always thinking ahead to make your life easier. Pre pulls your different online calendars into one view, bringing you the information you want without having to search for it. Pre links your contacts from different sources, giving you one place to find what you need. And Pre delivers incoming messages¹ and notifications in an intuitively subtle way, letting you react or respond however you want. People, events, information that matters. With Palm Pre, it’ll come to you.

Connected calendars and contacts

Pre uses the Palm^® Synergy™ feature to bring your Outlook^®,² Google, and Facebook^® calendars together for one logical view of your day. And if you have the same contacts in different places, Pre can link them together, making it easy to find the information you need.

Multiple activities

Keep multiple applications open and move easily between them—email, maps, photos, websites, whatever.³ Pre thinks of your applications as “activity cards,” and lets you flip through them, move them around, or throw them off screen.

Notifications bar

Things like text messages and calendar appointments appear as notifications at the bottom of the screen. You’ll know what’s going on without being completely interrupted or losing your train of thought.

Browser and Integrated Applications

An incredibly fast browser brings you websites the way they were meant to be seen. What’s more, apps designed for the Palm webOS™ platform work hand in hand with other apps on the phone. Buy movie tickets, for example, and you can add the times right to your calendar.

Universal search⁴

Simply start typing to begin searching your contacts, applications, Google, or even Wikipedia. Universal search narrows down the possible results as you type, so it’s easier to find what you need.

Combined messaging

Thanks to Synergy, all your conversations with the same person are grouped together in one chat-style view. (Even if it started in IM, for example, and you want to reply with text.) You can also see who’s online right from contacts, and start a new conversation with just one touch.

Email, Wi-Fi, and GPS

Check email from Outlook^® or personal accounts like Gmail, AOL, and Yahoo!.⁵ Take advantage of Wi-Fi hotspots.⁶ And look up directions or nearby points of interest using GPS.⁷ It’s everything you need, everywhere you go.

Breakthrough design

Slide out the keyboard for faster and easier texting. Close it up and rotate Pre for music, websites, photos, and videos in full widescreen glory. You get the best of both worlds in one beautifully designed phone.
