It looks like retailers are going to have to do what Palm won’t: Make the Palm Pixi genuinely cheap, or at least cheaper than the Pre. For example! Walmart’s already slashed the Pixi’s price from $US100 to $US30 — pre-launch.
She was shot in a movie, but apparently the creepy Pre girl died Palm’s world, too. This new Pixi ad is full of fun, happy people using the phone while “Sleepyhead” by Passion Pit plays in the background. Huge improvement.
