In what is the first hands-on with “new” Palm handhelds since the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus launched with Verizon two months ago, Engadget has posted pictures and impressions of their first encounter with the AT&T ‘s first WebOS devices direct from CTIA.
In a nutshell, very little has changed from the recently-launched Verizon versions. Engadget reports the performance of both version, including the usually sluggish Pixi , as being “relatively zippy”. No word if this is due to the speed boost received from webOS 1.4 or a newer build on these GSM variants. In fact, Engadget does not even mention which build of WebOS was on their demo units. None of the images in Engadget’s photo gallery showcase any of the new AT&T specific software found on these new devices, as we learned yesterday.
