The Palm Pre is coming to Verizon early this year. We know this. But this morning, BGR gives us something new to be excited about: The Pixi’s apparently coming to Verizon as well, and both models get a (titular?) upgrade.
Well, we knew it was coming today, and it’s here now – Sprint is pushing WebOS’s latest update to Palm Pres and Pixis as you read this. It’s supposed to bring better performance and battery life as well as a bunch of minor features. [Palm via Engadet]
WebOS 1.3.5 for the Palm Pixi and Pre should be dropping today, with better battery life and MMS fixes, according to yanked release notes. Not there: a fix for broken iTunes support. Has Palm given up the gambit? [AllThingsD]
Hark! Did you hear the heralded Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein confirm the webOS 1.3.5 update? It’s on its way soon for all Pre and Pixi owners, and will gift a better battery life, more speed and stronger Wi-Fi.
There’s been plenty of speculation as to when Verizon will begin offering the Palm Pre or the Pixi, but some leaked internal training slides would suggest that it’ll be sooner rather than later.
The Palm Pre’s little brother Pixi has just grown up, with it receiving the webOS 1.3.2 update before the Pre.
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.
