The commercial WebOS was indeed beautiful in its multitasking ergonomics although it lacks simple things like SIP client, good international phone number support, compatible Blue Tooth file exchange and so on...

Having owned a Pre 3 I must say that I felt like it was abandoned by its creator because of inferior hardware design.

It quickly became unstable to unusable and I had to send it 4 times back (1 time expansys, 3 times to Palm repair centre) and finally write an email to HP CEO and all right hands to finally get the case escalated and the motherboard replaced (like I insisted upon from day 1)

Althoug I really liked the screen of the Pre3
I 'd vote for a port to different hardware
