Palm Web O S Logo

The revolutionary Palm® webOS™ platform lets you manage many aspects of your life at once. You can keep multiple applications open, and instantly move from one to another, allowing you to switch quickly between your contacts, your calendar, web browsings and any other applications. It’s like flicking through a deck of cards.

Layered Calendars and Linked contacts

Palm Pre uses the Palm Synergy™ feature, which brings all of your calendars together so you can view your day in one go. And if you have the same contacts in different places, Palm Pre can link them together, so it’s easy to find what you need.

Intuitive notifications

When important things come up or new updates arrive, you'll receive notifications in a way that’s very different from other mobiles. For example, if you receive a text or email, a notifications bar at the bottom of your screen lets you deal with it right away or leave until later. It’s always one step ahead, making sure you never miss a thing, but without losing your place.
