In last night’s earnings call, Palm’s CEO Jon Rubinstein talked about plans for CES. Most notably, a preview of webOS 1.3.5. According to Rubinstein, webOS 1.3.5 would including the following:
- Improved battery life
- Better overall device and WiFi performance
- Removal of the app download storage limit
- Speed boost for Pixi users
The removal of the app storage limit is long overdue and nothing jumps out at us…yet.

well that’s lame. 1.3.5 isn’t anything special, CES should give us WebOS 2.0 sneak peak or something. though, something tells me they aren’t ready for that.
Sounds great but I wish something would come sooner than that. Functionality seems to have regressed a little since last update. But I’m a Palm trooper, so I’ll be waiting (Still) like everyone else.
At CES show? Like in January? Why are things taking so long between updates. I wouldn’t mind if Palm had put out a nearly finished product and were just making tweaks, but although I’m loving the UI, the Pre is far from a loaded smart phone. This is so annoying that they rushed to get it out and are now at a snail’s pace at making necessary upgrades. I’m a devoted Palm user for a gazillion years, but I don’t feel like they lived up to the usual Palm standards this time. New and inventive, yes. Optimal productivity and jam-packed, NO!
when the **** will paid apps be available in europe.
