QOTD: Are You Considering the Palm Pre.

Palm Pre. Yay or nay? Tomorrow as wireless stores open across the U.S. the Palm Pre will be an official player in the smartest-of-phones market. Unlike buying a PC or even a dumb phone, buying a smart phone is buying into an entire ecosystem with the advent of application stores and other online options. If youò€™re a diehard Google cloud user, the Android is the one to beat. For someone already committed to iTunes and the App Store, the iPhone is it. Business users have had BlackBerrys grafted onto them for years already. But tomorrow, Palm hopes to rise from the ashes as a major player with its Pre phone. Those stuck to Sprintò€™s network have no better option, but those free to move around will have decisions to make this year with a new iPhone around the corner and numerous Android handsets to follow. The reviews have already hit the mass media (check out Gizmodoò€™s cleverly organized review summary), and the consensus is that itò€™s a brilliant first effort from Palm but not perfect. So the question of the day is: Are you considering the Palm Pre as your next phone? Why or why not?

AMD Launches Tri-core Assault At Intel Dual-core CPUs.
Sunnyvale (CA) - AMD"s new Phenom X3 8000 series of processors are finally ready for launch: Two new processors carry the massive burden to protect the margins of the higher-end quad-core processors, whose average retail prices have been melting away - while Intel has no problem charging substantially higher prices for its last generation dual-core and quad-core products. But the million dollar question is: Will you prefer a tri-core Phenom over a dual-core Core 2 Duo? (If you would like to skip the tri-core anyway, AMD also has new quad-cores with higher clock speeds for you).
