Germany to Get Palm Pre Plus and Palm Pixi Plus

Author: admin  //  Category: News, Palm

By way of Vodafone Germany and O2 Germany, two small sized yet super impressive Palm smart phones will finally be reaching European shores. This has brought up plenty of rumors and hopes that the Palm phones may actually make it to UK stores. O2 UK has great news for Palm fans as they have just confirmed that they too will be stocking the devices pretty soon.

Palm’s Pixi smart phone was first announced in September 2009 and has gotten plenty of positive feedback regarding the device’s balance of hardware features, capabilities and most importantly, size. It probably packs the most features-to-size ratio of its time.

The Palm QWERTY keyboard also provides easy typing for users with well designed keys that even users with larger fingers will find easy to operate. Germany will be getting the Pixi Plus, which is basically the very same phone as the original Pixi with the addition of video recording capability and WiFi connectivity –a major feature that was missing in the original phone.

The Palm Pre Plus, much like the Pixi Plus, takes after another older model from Palm, the Pre. The smart phone is a portrait oriented slider device with a QWERTY keyboard. The specs are much like the Pixi Plus though it has a better 3 mega pixel camera.

Both smart phones lack support for micro SD cards and rely entirely on their internal memory. For the small size of the devices, this little compromise is easy to deal with. The Palm phones also make use of the WebOS mobile platform which turns the user experience into something that is both enjoyable and easy.

The Palm Treo Pro is official as of today, as Palm debut their latest Windows Mobile Professional device. Online leaks of the device caused mixed feelings last week.

Palm Treo Pro will sport the company trademark square touchscreen display with a resolution of 320 x 320 pixels. All four GSM and three UMTS bands are covered, which makes the phone good for worldwide roaming. HSDPA is also on board to boost data transfer speed over 3G networks.

The Palm Treo Pro runs on Windows Mobile Professional 6.1 and is powered by a 400 MHZ Qualcomm CPU. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and USB connectivity are all on board, and so is a microSD card slot handling cards up to 32 GB (when those are one day available, of course). Some of the other features of the new Treo include built-in GPS, a 2 megapixel camera and a 3.5mm standard audio jack.

The amount of user memory on the Palm Treo Pro is up to 100 MB, while the RAM is 128MB. The whole thing will feed on a huge 1500 mAh Li-Ion battery.

Palm Treo Pro is expected to hit the shelves in Europe in September at about 375 euro (549 US dollars) before taxes or subsides. The Treo Pro availability will then expand to other markets worldwide.
