My Devices

I decided to update the 3/4 of my Palm WebOS devices. The Pre (not pictured) and Pre2 (middle) were my primary, daily-driver phones for over two years, from September 2009 through to spring 2012, when I acquired a Galaxy Nexus and made the jump to Android.

The Pre3 (right) I also picked up on eBay. It came in box, with all accessories, and a spare battery.

Note: Yes, WebOS Technically still exists. However, this article isn’t talking about the TV OS version made by LG.

While this article was actually written to discuss getting Palm devices usable, I felt some preamble was necessary.

My Palm History

I’ve got a soft spot for Palm. My first PDA was the Palm Vx, possibly the greatest PDA ever made. Easily get days of battery from a device that can store all your calendar and contacts information, synchronizing periodically with your master copy on your computer.
