I'd love to see Palm show someone frustrated with another phone, maybe an iPhone, because it can't do X, then show someone with a Pre doing X quickly and easily.

Maybe Palm thinks that particular box has "Pandora" written on it (and not the musical variety) and would prefer to leave it closed.

The problem with the Pre is that you kinda have to be a smartphone user to get what a big deal some of its features are. Otherwise, before sharing the feature, Palm needs to make people aware of the problem that it addresses.

That kind of thing has to be done very very delicately otherwise eyes will glaze over... except for tech-heads like us.
