I'm sure that many of you have heard about the Palm Pre unveiled at CES 2009. It's a new touchscreen/thumbpad phone from Palm that utilizes a unique interface to manage applications and information. Palm offers an overview on their site:

The phone will sport a brand new operating system called WebOS. This name is significant because you can program applications for it using web languages like HTML, CSS, and Javascript. More information is available here:

I'm stoked because its interface looks pretty sleek and easy to program for. Also, it will be on Sprint first. This may or may not be my new phone depending on price and how well it does compared to Android/Windows Mobile. I suggest you stay on your toes and watch this phone, because it made pretty big waves when it was announced.
