Comments on: GSM Palm Pixi In The Wild, CDMA Shipments Predicted
In other Pixi-related news, that ever-lovin' bastion of rumour-mongering, DigiTimes, is citing chatty "industry sources" in Taiwan, claiming that Compal Communications will begin shipping the phone to Palm by the end of September, with Q4 '09 shipments expected to hit 700,000-800,000 units. Which certainly couldn't hurt Palm's bottom line.

RE: 4GB
If any of you know the engadget or precentral posters, it would be nice to point out that gsm pixie is a ridiculously old prototype
I think it's safe to assume that 8GB (yay) / no WiFi (boo) are stll going to be the specs.
Slow
I noticed a small lag in responding at the touch of the screen.
I guess I can live with the fact that it takes about 2 minutes to start-up, but it is slow.
It's hard to believe that at the present time they just can make a fast enough phone like those made by blackberry.
I love Palm but when it comes to responsiveness and wait time, they are not cutting it.
RE: Slow
RE: Slow
I should also mention that my belief is based on my current Pre, wich I own with all the updates.
I was very exited when I purchased the phone. Then I came to notice the phone also takes it's time and is somewhat slow too.
Let us hope the next Pre generation will sport a faster processor that improves responsiveness and performance.

Large number of devices and bottomlines
[there is high ambiguity about whether the very-well-selling Centro actually made any money for Palm; when the then-CFO actually was asked that question, he avoided simply saying "Yes" and said the Centro was contributing more than expected (lol!)]

4GB
-4GB was the original memory spec for the device but Palm generously bumped it up and this is just an older pre-productioin model
-Palm's going to position the Pixi differently abroad than they are domestically. Sort of like the Centro, with the CDMA version being more "luxurious" (soft-touch paint, 128mb RAM version, 3G) in comparison to its GSM sibling.
Palm could be figuring on "free" 4GB GSM Pixi but positioning the 8GB CDMA Pixi as a "$50" device.
