Now if they would stop insisting on double charging PressDisplay subscribers for the App, that would be great. That is good news Andy – a step in the right direction.

Maybe they are in a more reasonable mood now. Gayle,

I have since gotten 2 more Pres for my wife and son. We all like the phone very much and I started to see the Pre in the subways here in NYC. More and more people are buying them. I think the Pre is going to give the iphone a real run for its money and be the first real competition for the iphone. It would be a great app fro the Pre to have pressdisplay on it. Any word on the current status? I was hoping for some word on the Pre software. I have since gotten 2 more Pres for my wife and son.

I also like navigating on the web and how it syncs my contacts, emails, and calendar really well with Google stuff online. There are however not enough interesting apps yet. I think it is chicken and egg thing. Developers want to see more people using the phone and people want ot see more apps before they get the phone. I think having press display on the Pre if Apple does not want to play nice, could be a real boon for the Pre. The ability to read all the newspapers you want in a really easy to navigate interface on your phone would be great. The Pre, like the iTouch and iPhone, has that "pinch two fingers together/apart" gesture to increase/decrease the magnification of the screen. That'd be great to navigate with. Either platform would be great for me. I hope if you develop for the Pre that it doesn't take so long (Fall is much better than Christmas!). I understand Palm made the SDK available recently to developers. ~Andy I really like the Pre a lot as a piece of hardware.

I hear ya on this one. The newspapers will be hosted on our server, but Apple still wants to charge subscribers. We are planning a Palm release later this year. I'm curious how you like the new Pre. cheers Gayle Hey Andy. I hear ya on this one. The newspapers will be hosted on our server, but Apple still wants to charge subscribers.

The NY Times and USA Today are available as free apps. I guess maybe the newspapers will be on apple's servers? Because if they are on your servers it should be a non-issue. What about palm pre software web OS version. I got my pre today. Is that software available to be beta tested? I really want to have either software for my iTouch or my palm pre.

Hopefully Apple will understand people aren't buying anything through the app, they are just using the app to display information already purchased elsewhere. The actual purchase is taking place in the browser session when you click to authorize the download. Good luck, this is one of my most desired apps. I was wondering what the delay was.
