I actually do "all the above" but ticked what I do most *on* the Pre. G'luck to all.

Default Missing Palm Desktop

Can’t seem to get company e-mail working with exchange server, and phone only syncs with web based e-mail.
At least the palm desk top would let you take you last 50 e-mails on the road with you for reference.

I use it for most of the list. I don't listen to music or watch videos. And I have a high end DSLR for pictures that is with me most of the time.

Contact Management was a very close fourth to social networking. The main reason I didn't choose it is that with the Pre, I'm not doing much "management", just letting the device do it's thing.

I've long since abandoned Tasks and Memos, waiting for a solution that truely integrates them in a usable way for me.

Top 3 was hard. I have a Pre because at least 6 are very important, 3 others somewhat important!

My fourth choice is "Music" ... I need music to sooth my nerves be it driving or working...etc.I dont see how talking on phone constantly while driving makes for a productive day to me.It just adds to the stress factor in my book

If "Web Browsing" was a choice, it would've been my 1st...

Cool

Well not only does Web Browsing not show up, but what about some of the other Apps we are using like FindMYCar (which I love when you go to a larger event like I did at the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta last month).

However back to sync with Outlook over USB – hmmmmmm what happen to the idea of no cables and WiFi? I am fine with the cost of $40 or so, but no WiFi sync guys let’s get real here. If I can drag and drop using WinSCP and SFTP over WiFi then sync over WiFi should be possible.

Footnote: Palm, this should real be a standard coming with the phone!

This is a great idea, I currently just copy and paste all my files from the Pre to my PC once a week, it's aritual. Other than my contacts being saved via the daily back up, I like this feature to do it via USB, this way my wife can see my calendar and know where I am and perhaps schedule more stuff for me (I am a wrestling referee, they call me for assignments all the time, my wife does not have my calendar), this would defenitely help me get more stuff much easier! I have my email checking on a minute to minute basis, I needs this!! HOOK ME UP!

WAY TO GO COMPANIONLINK!!! (little brown suger on me, hold one, let me wipe dat!..lol)

Default I regularly use so much more than just 3 apps.

I chose Phone, Calendar and E-mail for the Poll. However, I also heavily rely on Memos and Contacts. I used to regularly use ToDo Lists, but find it completely lacking on the Pre.

Default Also left out...NAVIGATION

Also left out...NAVIGATION

Nav is really great.

But I am kinda hoping Google will make their new nav with street view available on the Pre. (or maybe Telenav will incorporate this using the Google data?)

A "play games" choice was also left out, though that would not have been near my top 3. Hopefully this will change as Palm eventually gets updated video drivers and a way to engage the full capabilities of the phone's hardware.
