It seems that Palm including its WebOS has just been reborn. Thanks to the CES 2010, Palm is bringing out some new good things up on its sleeves.  First is the launch of two new Palm smartphones – the Palm Pixi Plus and Palm Pre Plus. And second, some new  3D games are now available for Palm Pre.
Palm Pixi Plus features a nice streamlined design with simple navigation, 16GB of storage and a Touchstone Back Cover available in four colors – pink, green, blue and orange. While the Palm Pre Plus also have similar features with the addition of Wi-Fi connectivity. Both Palm smartphones will be available on January 25 on Verizon Wireless.
In addition, Palm also launched a new webOS app called Palm mobile hotspot. This app lets you turn your Palm Pixi Plus or Palm Pre Plus into a mobile Wi-Fi router. Up to five Wi-Fi enabled can access the internet through the Palm smartphone serving as a router.
As for the 3D games, Palm also announced several new 3D games which are available right now for download to the Palm Pre phone series. These 3D games include Need for Speed Undercover, The Sims 3, MONOPOLY, Asphalt 5: Elite Racing, Let’s Golf, Glyder 2 and X-Plane.
With the smartphone market heating up with the release of the Nexus One, and the iPhone still up and about, it’s a good thing that Palm is awakening from a deep slumber. Â These developments will certainly help them catch up with the iPhone and possibly prevent the Nexus One from getting to much of the smartphone market share.
