Palm Pixi Is A Smaller Version Of The Palm Pre Albeit Without WiFi
So you want a smaller Palm Pre? Lucky you, the company just announced the release of Palm Pixi–a smaller version of Palm Pre with better keyboard, but no WiFi connectivity.
The Palm Pixi still runs in WebOS and is available for Sprint subscribers. It has pretty much all the features that Palm Pre has except that it cannot connect to wireless networks. This smaller version of Palm Pre don’t have the pullable keyboard, which makes it lighter in weight than the Pre. It, however, has smaller display resolution, cutting off exactly 80 pixels because of the light weight. The Pixi can only handle 320×400 resolution because of its mere 2.36 inches height. The Pixi also has a 2-megapixel camera compared with the Pre’s 3-megapixel camera.
The Pre is priced at $150 and although there is no official announcement yet as to the date of release and the price of the Pixi, we’re betting that it will fall beneath the Pre’s tag.
