Comments on: SFGate on Palm's Wireless Touchstone Charger
While the article does not reveal any revolutionary new information, it's encouraging to see a lengthy mention of Palm's new Touchstone accessory, as it has been a bit lost amidst the hoopla over WebOS and the Pre ever since the January CES unveiling.

They might be the first to charge such an OUTRAGEOUS price.
The touchstone comes packaged in a kit or separate
$50 for the Touchstone dock, $20 for the special back.
Of course, unmentioned is that EACH Touchstone needs the Pre charger (see above comment threads) so, if you want the utility implied by having multiple Touchstones, you need to buy extra chargers for each extra Touchstone.
Or you could carry a single charger around from Touchstone dock to Touchstone dock and...you know...plug it in each time.

My phone has two big metal contacts at the bottom that connect to a drop-in charger. It's cheap, simple, and charges quickly. What's the advantage of the Touchstone?
It's so COOL! ;-)
Seriously, I can't imagine paying $70 for this thing. But some people will. They are going after the kind of people who pay top dollar for form over function.
Hey Palm! Where's my PDA with Wifi and phone capabilities?
RE: drop in charger
Yes, a drop in charger or maybe such a radical idea as a cradle would work as good for a lot less I'm thinkin'.
There are indications of collab with Mojo Mobility...
Based on "guts" image/s shown, based on services, location, mission, business model, etc. Mojo looks like a great fit to be providing the technology to Palm.
