I pre-ordered a black iPhone 3GS 32GB from the Apple Store and picked it up after work today. I was surprised that there were 2 lines when I got to the store around 5pm, one for pre-orders and one for customers who didn't pre-order. I gave my name to the Apple employee who was checking off names of people who pre-ordered, waited about 5 minutes in line, and was taken into the store. The Apple employee handling my purchase told me that they had sold out of 32GB black iPhone 3GS' at around 2pm, but anyone who pre-ordered an iPhone 3GS was put on hold in the back of the store. The activation process was quick and painless. The whole process from beginning to end took about 20 minutes (much better than waiting in line for 6 hours back in the day;) ) Stay tuned for some 1st impressions and thoughts on the iPhone 3GS.

One of the coolest smartphone accessories (possibly ever made) is called the Palm Touchstone. The Touchstone allows you to charge your Pre wirelessly. The Touchstone Charging Kit comes with the Touchstone and a matte, soft-touch back cover for the Pre. The Touchstone uses magnetic induction charging to wirelessly charge the Pre. It has a strong magnet inside the hockey puck looking device and the included back cover also has a magnet inside to securely hold your Pre to Touchstone. You can use your Pre, view media in portrait or landscape and use Touchstone features (if you receive a call or place your Pre on Touchstone during a call if switches to speakerphone) all while wirelessly charing.

The Palm Pre 's packaging is very reminiscent of the iPhone packaging. Once you open the box the Pre is on full display. Palm pre-charges the Pre so you can begin using it right away. Palm includes a microfiber pouch (cleans and holds the Pre), an AC charger, a Micro USB sync cable, a stereo headset, and a Get Started guide.

The Sprint Treo Pro comes in the exact same packaging as the unlocked Treo Pro. Palm's packaging for the Sprint Treo Pro is very reminiscent of Apple's iPhone packaging. It's clear that Palm wants to make a great first impression before you even get to the Treo Pro inside its box and they succeed in doing so. Very classy!
Once you remove the top of the box of the Sprint Treo Pro the smartphone is on full display. No digging through CD's, setup guides, etc. It's all about the Treo Pro.
Inside the box you'll find:
Treo Pro smartphone
Removable 1500 mAh lithium-ion battery that Palm has already placed inside the Treo Pro (nice touch)
AC Phone Charger
MicroUSB sync cable (this plugs directly into the AC charger) and is also used to sync the Treo Pro with your computer.
Get Started Guide
There's no CD included in the box to setup the Treo Pro. Palm has actually put all of that software inside the Treo Pro itself. Once you connect the Treo Pro to your computer for the first time via the MicroUSB cable the software setup begins (another nice touch Palm!!)
In the next few days I'll post more thoughts about the Sprint Treo Pro and how it compares to my current smartphones. Stay tuned!

iPod nano 4G packaging
iPod nano 4G contents
iPod nano 4G language screen
iPod nano 4G menu UI
iPod nano 2G, iPod nano 3G, iPod nano 4G
iPhone 3G, iPod nano 3G, iPod nano 4G
I picked up a Black 8GB iPod nano 4G on Wednesday and wanted to post some unboxing, comparison shots and 1st impressions. The iPod nano 4G is unbelievably thin, feels great in the hand due to its curved body, and the glass screen is amazing.
The accelerometer in the nano works just like the iPhone and iPod touch. If you're a lefty or a righty the screen rotates based on the way you're holding the nano. The accelerometer also allows for games to be played on the nano without using the click wheel. The marble maze game Apple includes is very similar to games available for the iPhone and iPod touch, you control the marble by the way you hold the nano.
The Genius playlist feature is also built into the new nano, it really does allow you to rediscover your music. My favorite feature of the new nano is "shake to shuffe", just shake the nano and it shuffles your music and moves on to another song (only Apple could come up with something so simple and cool).

The Boy Genius is first again, with an unboxing of an unannounced device. This time it's the AT&T Centro . It looks like AT&T will not only be offering the Centro in white, it will also be offering it with a white and green keyboard. The green keys correspond to the number keys on the Centro, but why green??? Thank God it's not brown like some company's failed MP3 player;)
