The sheer number of usernames I recognize here from PreCentral is amazing, including fr4nk1yn who made some of my favorite Pre themes (in what was largely a sea of crap).
I plan to join the ranks of the EVO owners on Monday, decommissioning my Pre for backup use only. (I walked into a Sprint store in downtown Chicago at opening on Friday only to discover they had already sold out and were optimistically hoping for a reallocation later in the day which never happened. Monday it is, I hope.)
webOS is second to none in terms of usability. But as people have noted, Palm had its head up its ass with regards to hardware and actually implementing polish and key functionality that was included in PalmOS. If it wasn't for the webOSinternals guys, homebrewers and themers, my opinion about webOS wouldn't be nearly as positive. The phone running at the stock 500Mhz is a bad joke after having the 800Mhz patch installed for the past 3 months and the phone STILL chugs way more often than it should even with the 800MHz patch. Still, the potential's there but I don't see HP as being smart enough to fully capitalize on it. My money's on webOS as we know and love it dying a slow, painful death despite what some overzealous Pretards who now seem to be dominating PreCentral seem to think (some of us think the Pre IS too small and don't wear skintight assless chaps so we can actually pocket an EVO).
Looking forward to exploring everything Android has to offer and hearing what people have to say here.
