After turning off button lock. I find it way more annoying to have to go through a series of software steps to use the keyboard than to flip or slide. But that's just my opinion, I'm all about options. WebOS on more devices means more support and more development.no flip to answer, no slide to type, just use it.
why is the pic blurry? did it have to be blurry to sneak it out of the impenatrable compound that is palm's headquarters...or was it the spy was being chased down by the corperate espoionage defense team (CEDT) and they didn't have time to adjust the manual focus on their nikon...
it's a fake guys, not even a particularly good one. palm may have another device up their sleeve, it may even release this year, but this is definately not it...

I'd get it to replace the Centro
I don't care for that one as much as the Pre.
Hellooo Eos. 
Can't wait to see more specs.
Can't wait to see more specs.It looks interesting. Probably the length of the Pre when it is open. I would assume it will be about 1/2 the thickness. I wonder if it will accept a memory card.

Its convenience, really.
I use a centro right now. I just like how easy it is to pull it out, do what I need, and put it back quickly. I suppose a slider might be prety convenient too....maybe time will tell.

Similar dimensions to the Treo Pro.
Maybe this is the device that Digitimes reported as being manufacturered by Compal and was delayed?

Dude! Do you remember the comment made in Treocentral about Ed Colligan's picture holding what appeared to be an earlier Treo Pro? Methinks that was not the case and that in fact the Man had in there an easter egg of this very same Eos/Pixie device... conspiracy theory hat off now!

Agree, I prefer the keyboard already there. For me it's more of a holding thing. I feel more secure with the whole phone in my hand when I'm typing as opposed to just being on the bottom half with a slider.Its convenience, really.

I'm now torn, I was going to switch to Spring and cancel my AT&T contract for the Pre. Do I wait for this guy and not pay the cancellation fee??
What I'll probably do is get the Pre to try without cancelling my contract, and see if I can consider going back to another phone while I wait for this guy.

The correct answer is: You never change phone providers for a phone.Agree, I prefer the keyboard already there. For me it's more of a holding thing. I feel more secure with the whole phone in my hand when I'm typing as opposed to just being on the bottom half with a slider.

That might be the logic you live by, but AT&T would be worse off that Sprint right now if other people followed that logic.The correct answer is: You never change phone providers for a phone.

It's not logic. Just good common sense. If a provider's network is crap, no phone is going to make it better...and you will soon tire of the phone.That might be the logic you live by, but AT&T would be worse off that Sprint right now if other people followed that logic.
Oh, well. ETF's and new account fees help their business I guess!

That is long gone my friend. Some people would just rather have a cool looking phone and sacrifice great network coverage.Just good common sense.
Think I will add that to my sig line entitled stupid quotes of the year.
Why the hell should I care who my phone provider is as long as I get a connection when I need one? They are dumb pipes as far as I'm concerned and I want to get it as cheap as possible. A smart phone, on the other hand, is my constant companion.

Unless its a CDMA smartphone and you are in Europe.Why the hell should I care who my phone provider is as long as I get a connection when I need one? They are dumb pipes as far as I'm concerned and I want to get it as cheap as possible. A smart phone, on the other hand, is my constant companion.
