This is a good start for Palm's revival. Jon Rubinstein's experience and team FROM APPLE will bring the same success to Palm. People who are now criticizing this phone BASED ON A PRESENTATION and not even experiencing the product first hand are idiots. Others are just die hard fans of the iPhone who don't even know this was DESIGNED by APPLE ENGINEERS. Ignorance is bliss I guess. As J Rubinstein said they are not out to make an iphone killer. Just a killer product to help Palm revive its image. Why kill the iphone? Competition is great. In fact, adding the features that the iPhone lacks (copy + paste AND multi-tasking running more than one program at one time) will wake Steve Jobs up to add the same features in future iPhones.

Why dethrone the iphone when the same engineers who worked at Apple designed the Pre - they took what was missing FROM the iphone and added it to the Palm Pre:

considering some of the people who designed the Apple products are now working at Palm, maybe the patents have their names on it. The Pre was designed by a former Apple team:

"Of course, no one will like it cause Apple didn't make it "
Well Jasctt - actually Apple DID make the Pre. It was a team of former Apple staff like Jon Rubinstein (original engineer and co-developer of the iPod) who made the Pre what it is. Check it out:
