I left Web OS at the evo launch. I returned the Evo because of the Epic announcement- and really missed the keyboard.
Pre and Web OS have some serious omissions. You have ZERO access to the calendar. You either love or hate the calendar app. I HATED IT. No agenda view, it was slow, and even in daily hourly view the text was hard to read. Android has many calendar apps with more on the way (like old school Palm) and useful Calendar widgets.
The Calendar and Contacts were the #1 reason I had a Palm back in the day...Web OS dismisses them as if what they created day one on pre was perfect and needs no refinement.. and no developer access to create apps using those databases. Thus Open Source Android is my choice- and for any serious Palm fan of old... Android should be their choice too in my opinion.
The palm pre bucked pretty much all the reasons people like myself stuck by palm for so long. They removed the external keyboard option, the calender was nerfed badly, palm profile is just plain terrible (lost alot my version of contacts!) and just the general use of alot of features just dont scream palm. I love webOS, but being as it is a palm device I expect the palm feel and touch and I never seemed to get that with the pre.
