Thanksgiving has arrived here in the US and that generally means one few thing — people take some time out. Or maybe more accurately, they spend some time with family and/or friends and eat lots of food. And generally watch some television as well. Anyway, while we certainly would not argue that there are much more »

And just like that, the iPhone 4 reviews are beginning to hit the web. Of course, most regular folks are still waiting to get the iPhone in their hands, but while they are waiting — here are what some early reviewers are saying. Included in this post we have reviews from Xeni Jardin of BoingBoing, more »

It looks like the review embargo has been lifted, and that means this morning brings plenty of Droid Incredible reviews. So for anyone that had been unsure of how well the Droid Incredible would perform when it hit the real world, read on and see for yourself. All things considered, this seems to be the more »

It looks like the embargo has been lifted on the Apple iPad, and that means the first hands-on reviews have been posted. Overall the reviews seem to be positive and did not really spill anything all that surprising. But at the same time, they are worthy of a read if for nothing more than it more »

The embargo seems to have lifted and that means the web has recently been flooded with reviews for the soon-to-be released Palm Pre Plus. Of course, we already know that the Palm Pre Plus is going to be available with Verizon Wireless as of January 25, but thanks to this selection of reviews we can more »

Today seems to be the day that the reviews of the Barnes & Noble Nook will hit the web. And given that, I have spent the morning reading reviews instead of actually getting any real work done. That said, the reviews should be of interest to anyone considering picking up a Nook, that is once more »

It was a few weeks back when we saw a few Sprint branded HTC Hero reviews pop-up online, and now it looks like round 2 of that process has begun. Except this latest seems to have focused on unboxing and first thought style videos. Personally, I love watching video unboxings and having an interest in more »

With the HTC Hero coming, the T-Mobile G1 is starting to look antiquated. Many of you are probably like me and will be upgrading from that old G1 to the HTC Hero. So, here we have a nice selection of five reviews that for the most part all seem to have liked the Hero. Sounds like good news to me, but here is a little of what they had to say.

The excitement for the Palm Pre seems to building each day as we draw closer to the June 6 launch date. Having been a long time Palm user and Palm supporter I am not so patiently waiting to hear more about how the Palm actually works as opposed to what the features say it can do. Given that I was pleasantly surprised to wake up this morning to find not one, but numerous hands-on reviews of the Palm Pre. Of course, at the same time, it leaves me wondering what happened to my review unit, maybe it was lost in the mail. But all joking aside, the reviews, while positive have not convinced me that the Palm Pre will be a good enough replacement to either my current iPhone 3G or my T-Mobile G1.

Overall, the reviews that I read seem to have been positive, but at the same time it was interesting to see how many people were forgiving of Palm. Most of the reviews had some sort of reference to how the Palm Pre was not perfect but it was good as a “1.0 product” or how it was a “a first-generation platform on first-generation hardware.”

Of course there were plenty of comparisons between some other phones such as the iPhone and G1, which is only natural, but perhaps Gizmodo summed it up the best in saying how they were ready for something different because they were bored of the iPhone. Makes sense, perhaps that is why I have been using my G1 a little more often these days.

Now lets get on and check out some of the verdicts from the early reviews…

This latest roundup of Palm Pre information includes some availability, or actually lack of availability information, discusses how you will not be able to download MP3s over 3G and confirms that the camera does not suck. So, with that, lets gets right into the news. First up we have learned that the Palm Pre will not initially be available online or by calling telesales. It seems that if you are planning on getting a Palm Pre on the launch then you will be required to visit a store.

“Palm Pre will be available through sprint.com and Telesales sometimes after the initial launch date of June 6th.”

Thankfully, as we have already seen there will be plenty of stores to choose from such as Wal-Mart, Radio Shack and more. Moving on from there, another tidbit that was discovered in the Palm Pre manual that was leaked lets us know that we will not be able to download music from the primary (Amazon MP3) music store over Sprint’s 3G connection.
