It is a dog and pony show. No one dials a number or talks on the handset. or does anything with it.
When you read ont eh Palm PRPRPR $blog$ $that$ &$quot$;$Jessica$ $Alba$, $Mena$ $Suvari$ $and$ $Michael$ $Bolton$&$quot$; $will$ $be$ $getting$ $a$ $Pre$, $this$ $doesnt$ $mean$ $they$ $have$ $the$ $slightest$ $idea$ $what$ $a$ $Pre$ $is$, $just$ $that$ $the$ $PR$ $agencies$ $of$ $Palm$ $is$ $mailing$ $them$ $one$. $Might$ $as$ $well$ $say$ $Obama$ $is$ $getting$ $my$ $report$ $on$ $the$ $state$ $of$ $the$ $nation$.
Presenters at the ceremony such as Sandra Oh, Jessica Alba and Taraji P. Henson were among the first to receive the new Palm Pre, along with six months of service from Sprint – and Sandra plans on getting the phone into an episode of “Grey’s Anatomy” as soon as she can. For each star in attendance, Palm made a donation to Project:Involve, Film Independent’s diversity program
A coupon, like they certainly got a coupon for some organic dog food as well.
As far as Sanda Oh putting Pre on Greys Anaotomy, the talent doesn't do that, they can't pick their shoes. The Greys anatomy people do and for money,a nd money only in very open exchange. It is called "product placement" it is a hundreds of millions in advertising
