I think WebOS is great. But all the Palm devices are sliders which kinda sucks. I wish they'd come up with something comparable with Nexus S or iPhone 4. A simple, but cool nice little piece of smartphone. But, that's just me.


I actually like the slider keyboard. If offers much better typing than an iPhone 4 and infinitely better than Androids.


The Palm Pixi is not a slider, and I love it.


The Pixi is nice as a form factor, but 1) it's incredibly old comparatively, and 2) will not officially run webOS 2.x, and especially 3.x.

I know others who loved the form factor and feel of the Pixi; I'm hoping HP decides to throw them a bone in the future to get them back.


But it is terrrrrribly slow, even overclocked.
