Section: Communications, Cellphones, Smartphones, Mobile
Palm let loose their latest release of webOS, their mobile phone operating system. The release improves a series of features but seems to have left iTunes syncing and an expected speed boost behind. The Pixi, Palm’s webOS replacement, goes on sale tomorrow.
This update will be performed OTA or over the air by either Pre phones today and Pixi phones tomorrow. According to Palm’s website:
With this update, your Yahoo! information (such as contacts and calendar events, and messaging) is now integrated with Palm Synergy, along with info from your Outlook EAS, Facebook, Google, and LinkedIn accounts. If you use Yahoo! to manage your contacts and calendar events, it will be integrated into your Contacts and Calendar applications on your Palm Pre. On Sprint, you can also now use Yahoo! IM in the webOS Messaging app.
According to the Palm website for Sprint users, will see other small upgrades here are the highlights:
back up will now save cookies, so passwords and user names on websites now get saved.
correct Google calendar sync
Better formatting in email
forwarding MMS messages
Unique ringtones for message alerts
All in all a good update but seems much more like bug fixing than ground breaking as many owners were hoping for. That speed boost continues to be out there. Rats.
