IPhone vs. Palm Pre, Head To Head Reviews
Think this forum needs some injection of new material. Check this article out. The author has been updating it regularly with additional content and it is very instructive, in particular for those "IPhone vs. Palm Pre" debates...

Nobody knows what else the Pre has, it's possible they only showed like 40% of what it can do, its stupid to make comparisons. (Oh, I forgot that the iPhone has copy/paste already....)

That was a strange article, and not particularly well thought out. The author seems to conclude that the iPhone wins because of the apps. Not a terribly insightful conclusion. We needed analysis to indicate that there are more apps for the iPhone than the Pre? Duh, the Pre isn't even out yet, and the SDK is in limited distribution. Not a great read.

What can I say? Some people are just biased and can't help themselves.
<-- Palm Pre ******, for instance.
