Palm announced today the Palm Pre, the company's next generation Linux-based web tech-enabled operating system. It has a fast CPU, Wifi, Bluetooth with A2DP support, removable battery, 3.1" touchscreen 480x320 LCD, gesture-enabled UI at the bottom half of the phone's body, 3 MP camera with LED flash, multi-touch, accelerometer, slide-out keyboard, GPS, EVDO, and an impressive, fresh UI. Sprint will be the first carrier to sell the smartphone, at the first half of 2009. ArsTechnica has a nice write-up too.

..and? You're using by definition power intensive applications rather than just saying: "Well I had EVERY SINGLE 'FEATURE' turned off and it drained in a day" v. "I HAD EVERY SINGLE FEATURE TURNED on AND IT DRAINED in a day"
See the idea? You get 'features' or you get battery life, your choice.
That said I am in now way a fan of assinine (power sucking) phone features of today's phones, nor of the network providers and their even more assinine service plans...
