Palm has decided to close all of its retail stores in order to fully compete in the market of smartphones.

As RIM, maker of the Blackberry devices, have grown using retail stores, Palm decides to leave the retail store market. They have decided to focus on fewer programs and see what they can do more universally.

Wish the best to Palm. I personally believe its their loss. RIM has been very successful but I think it was because their products are very well advertised.

Everything over the past month has become pink! Just in time for the special day in February!

Verizon Wireless has now introduced a pink version of their popular Blackberry Pearl 2! The phone is the improved version over the GSM models released back in November of 2007.

The phone has only changed in color and has the same specifications: 2.0 megapixel camera, Push E-mail, Shuretype keypad, VZNavigator, PIM functions, and so much more!

The pink is definately an exclusive for now just in time for Valentine’s Day shoppers. Expect to pay a fairly low price of $149.99 with a 2 year contract.

If you do not want the Pearl 2 on the Verizon network, it is also available on Sprint or you can go with the Centro for $99 on Sprint.

 

Research In Motion (RIM) today announced a series of updates for its BlackBerry platform that include enhanced messaging and collaboration, simpler management, enhanced security and expanded application development support.

There will be newer applications to work with your PC and more security to keep all of your important data safe from those pickering hackers.

Lets see how it goes…
