The newest Palm Web OS update, 1.4, is here — and now the Palm Pre Plus has video, among some other great functions. Disclosure: I am taking part in the Verizon Palm® Pre™ Plus Mommy Blogger Program and will be testing out the phone for the next month on Mommies With Style.
Now, I can easily shoot video from my new Palm Pre Plus. but I can also make edits and upload my footage to YouTube or Facebook (or send them via email or MMS). It was really easy to shoot the video — here’s one of my first attempts.
Another feature of the update I liked were enhanced notifications: LED in the Gesture Area now lights up (and pulses) if I have a notification (even when the screen is off). I can also customize my notification sounds in messaging, email, and calendar. And there are new notification sounds in the ringtones library.
See more details of the Palm webOS 1.4 update in action here. The Update will automatically happen once Palm webOS 1.4 is available on your carrier, but you can also trigger the update using the Updates app (which is what I did). It will take a little while to upload and install.
Verizon supplied me with the new Palm Pre Plus and are paying for 1 month of service, including internet access. No other compensation was received. All opinions expressed are my own.
Thank you for this unique post. Quite often, the best content come from the sources a person would not expect. Not too long ago, I decided not to give a whole lot of thought to writing comments on web log entries and have left feedback even less. Reading your powerful content, may very well motivate me to take action more often.
