McNamee Talks Palm Pre, Opening Weekend a Dream Come True

Roger McNamee sat down with FOX Business today and talked about the Palm Pre. McNamee did not offer hard sales numbers, but confirmed the Pre sold out in "many, many locations", which echos what we'd been hearing in our forums. McNamee was on point throughout most of the interview, citing the keyboard, multi-tasking among the advantages of the Pre, while refusing to call the Pre an "iPhone killer". Say one thing for McNamee, he's a good interview and certainly does not lack enthusiasm for the Pre. He also offers some interesting uses for the mirror on the back of the Palm Pre.

Roger was such on the point in the interview. providing a need for those who want keyboard, notification, multitasking, etc. Isn't that the reason why we loved Palm anyway? Forge ahead Palm! Can't wait to get my hands on a Pre.

There's still that small detail of the local desktop sync function. That's what started this whole market. It would be unfortunate to rely only on Wifi locations to sync, let alone insist that remaining Palm users jump through various cloud hoops to migrate their data.
