WSJ's Mossberg Gives Palm Pre (PALM) A Glowing Review

June 4, 2009 7:30 AM EDT

The Wall Street Journal's Walt Mossberg gives the Palm Pre (Nasdaq: PALM) a pretty glowing review.

Mossberg said, "I consider the Pre to be potentially the strongest rival to the iPhone to date, provided it attracts lots of third-party apps, which it sorely lacks at launch." He also said, "The Pre's biggest advantage over the iPhone is that, in addition to sporting an elegant touch-screen interface that matches or exceeds Apple's, the new Palm device has a real physical keyboard that slides out from its curved body. While I like the iPhone's virtual on-screen keyboard, others hate it, and yearn for a device with both a great touch interface and a physical keyboard. The Pre delivers."

The Palm Pre is launching with Sprint (NYSE: S) on June 6 and early next year will be available with Verizon (NYSE: VZ) also.
