Photos: UK Palm Pre and US Palm Pre switch places, fool parents
In our brief hands-on, we felt that despite its plastic body, the Pre didn't feel flimsy, and we liked its curved body and slider.
Its size is definitely pocket-friendly, and the screen was bright -- a little too bright for our camera to handle in the dark press briefing room.
But after a very short go on the full Qwerty keyboard, we were left feeling that the keys were extremely small and difficult to work one-handed. Also, there's no option to use an on-screen keyboard when the slider is closed.
Our US sister site CNET.com complained the keyboard was cramped for their American-sized fingers, and we look forward to giving the Pre a longer test to see if we struggle with the keyboard after getting used to it.
