This Palm Pixi is more towards the younger generation they will have vast experience using this device, it will be playful and smart kind of a same like pre but will be covered up by the young’s one and will sport a smaller multitouch screen, a 2-megapixel camera and a full QWERTY keyboard. The Pixi have a memory of 8 GB with GPS features enabled.
The move coincides with an announcement that Palm would drop the price of its Pre smartphone to $150 with a two-year service agreement and one rebates. Palm did not reveal the Pixi’s price but did say it would be less than that of the Pre and that it was expected to be available to consumers in time for the holiday shopping season through Sprint. Palm also designs to offer artist-designed, limited edition replaceable back covers, which it designs to showcase at the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York, which starts Thursday. “Palm Pixi brings this one-of-a-kind experience to a broader range of people who require enhanced messaging and social networking in a design that lets them express their personal style.”
The announcement of the Pixi comes less than one months after Palm began selling the Pre, which the company said registered record sales when it became available in June. The company did not discuss specific numbers that first week, but some analysts estimated that between 50,000 and 100,000 units were sold during the first weekend.
