Storage limit to be removed with WebOS 1.3.5?
If you’ve owned a Palm Pre during its heyday over the summer, then you probably were downloading every single application available on the App Catalog. Although a good majority of those programs didn’t seem to be big winners, with a small percentage being considered app worthy, owners of the venerable WebOS handset didn’t need to worry about overloading their Pre’s with useless apps. Now that development for the WebOS has been made available for some time, Palm Pre and Pixi owners have been facing a dilemma that didn’t seem too problematic in the beginning – which is the cap on app installations on either WebOS devices. Apparently though, there are some confirmations through anonymous sources that the latest version 1.3.5 of WebOS will clear the way to allow as many applications to be installed on a device. So if you’re the type to literally download every single program made available on the App Catalog, then you may find this news somewhat eye opening. No other information has been revealed about what else the next version will offer – but expect it to land sometime in the next few weeks.

Another reason why the iphone beats the droid phones

Hawk, this is another reason why you sound like a douche. I swear everyone that starts up or contributes to the whole iphone vs. droid vs. the next phone to come out, lowers their perceived intelligence by at least 20 points. The truth of the matter is that the vast majority of people who are saying that one is better than the other, has never owned the other phone that they are slamming. Why the heck do we have such blind pride in the device that we own? As far as the Droids memory at 264mb internal memory, I originally thought that was going to be a major hiccup, especially coming from Windows Mobile, and being able to run apps off the microSD. But, at this point, I have downloaded 29 apps and I still have 202mb of internal storage (average of 2.13kb per app). I no longer see this being an issue. How many apps do I expect to need? At this point, I don't forsee many people who are going to want 124 apps on their phones. Doitall76

LOL ok first off guy pls do me a favor and READ THIS ARTICLE They are talking bout WebOS...aka...Palm Pre...aka...Pixi...Not android or Iphone. Get my drift? WebOS is not android so why would you talk bout andriod?(talking to SamTime and doitall76) And this is for Hawk62.... "Another reason why the iphone beats the droid phones" Why are you posting anything is you can't read the article first. No where does it say anything bout android.

My post is valid. I read the article and i was replying to the first post stating google take note since the limited memory is a problem on the droid phones. I have been reading about the problem in my search for available apps for the Eris that my wife is getting tomorrow. So unlike most on here i will get to compare the iphone to the eris first hand.

I myself own an iPhone. Too many iPhone owners seem to just read every article and find any possible way to relate it to their phone even though it doesn't have a thing to do with it. What's worse is that you make the small majority of iPhone users who take advantage of having half a mind look like fools. You are perpetuating that which gives all of us a band name. While, in most cases, this is warranted, it is not in my case and a few others. Stop going from article to article posting bashes of everything in the article and forcing it to be about the iPhone. It isn't and nobody cares to hear you other than the depressingly large number of iPhone users who act the same way. Go find a site that loves the iPhone, has nothing but praise for it and join it. Please stop clogging our message boards with your superfluous garbage.

OMG, you ppl! The first post had NOTHING to do with the article. But im the bad guy. Thats funny. I HATE about a 100 things on the iphone. BUT, it is still the best "TOY" out today.

I see what your saying but come on you gotta admit the first thing out everyones mouth is "the Iphone is better" even when the article doesnt pertain to the iphone. I see what your saying that your comment was made to the first post but you should have just said something else... not thats why the iphone is better.

-I hear you...The first post from "SamTime" is pretty simple. The user was just saying Android should remove the app limit as well. I just don't get how iphone got in here...!!!

-Hopefully Palm is doing this to set the table for a fully loaded app store coming soon....not the "Beta" one.

today i put a Palm Pre, a Moto Droid, and an iPhone on the table today, built a little octagon around them with pens and post-it notes and guess what... the result was completely uneventful. the little bastards just ran out of battery life and sat there. so much for the infamous PHONE BOUT of '09.
