Well well well. If it isn’t Palm and the Pre in the news again. We love hearing good stories and often dread the “but there’s a bad part” part. It appears the roller coast Palm Pre owners have been on as of late isn’t about to stop anytime soon. First, as not to spoil the fun, and because the best always goes last, we’ll start with the bad. Bad: The Paid Pre apps and webOS update are delayed until a future date — obviously...

The announcement was made at Palm’s earnings call likely in hopes to take everyone’s mind off the vast amounts of red ink the company is going through. One thing is for certain however, Windows Mobile won’t be seen lurking around Palm...

If the Pre was supposed to be the saving grace of Palm, I have some news for you: They’re screwed. One phone alone can’t save a company that has been languishing in mediocrity for some time (such as Palm).
