You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Best option: wait!

Most people are expecting Apple to announce new iPhones tomorrow and the Palm Pre has only just launched. Give the dust on the Pre a couple of weeks to settle and you should start seeing reviews from real people -- not just tech journalists.

The new iPhone is likely to be a stable, polished product from the get-go so if it looks good - it probably is.

It turns out the iPhone's killer app ended up being the 3rd party apps, of which there are 10's of thousands. We've yet to see how many developers are going to rally around the Pre and start producing for that.

When the Palm Pre was first announced it offered features like universal search that scans contacts on the phone and the web, copy-and-paste and multi-tasking that were not available on the iPhone 3G.

But in March Apple closed the gap significantly. The iPhone 3.0 update to be released this summer would bring many of the Palm Pre’s features to the iPhone.

Though Sprint’s network ranks third among the big carriers, Palm Pre users in some areas will have access to Sprint’s 4-G network. AT&T, the exclusive carrier for the iPhone is not expected to start rolling out its 4-G network until next year.

Meanwhile, the iPhone trumps in the App store. Apple and AT&T have advertised the independent applications available through the store heavily. And, so far, despite attempts by competitors such as Research in Motion’s the BlackBerry App World store, the iPhone’s App store is still far ahead in the choices it offers. Though Palm has launched its own app store, we’ll have to wait and see how successful it is gathering developer interest.
