Sprint and Palm released the long awaited webOS 1.4 update. However, Verizon customers are still in the dark and have no received the update. Over the past few months, we have talked a lot about the webOS 1.4 update (here, here, and here) and we are excited about it. Sprint posted up a change list which consist of:
This update fixes:
- Time zone and network time sync bug
- BlueTooth car-kit transition to device
- Random browser formatting bugs
- Incorrect digital roaming display
- Missing contacts on device swap
This update includes enhancements to:
- Capturing, sharing and editing videos
- Phone and calendar performance

Today with what seems to be a mistake, Sprint confirmed the February 26 release of webOS 1.4 for the Palm Pre and Pixi. Quickly after being posted by an admin on the Sprint forum, the post was taken down. The update will be available via an over-the-air update at some point tomorrow. With some minor bug fixes and some major feature additions, webOS is going to have some real improvements. Check out our post from the CES Palm keynote that explains the major changes.

It has been just over a year since Palm unveiled webOS and the Palm Pre. Initially, the Pre was exclusive to Sprint and that led many consumers to be hesitant of purchasing the phone. However, at CES Palm outed their plan to bring a updated version of the Pre to a new carrier. At that moment, the Palm Pre Plus was born on Verizon Wireless.
The Palm Pre Plus brought a few hardware improvements over its Sprint counterpart. With double the internal memory, the Pre Plus should now be able to handle more tasks at once without a system slowdown. The device also seems to be a bit more sturdy.

Last month at CES, Palm announced that webOS 1.4 would be available in February. They failed to announce an exact date, but sources are saying that it is coming on the 15th. In just four days Palm customers will be able to update their webOS phones to 1.4 and get some great new features that the devices have been missing. Our favorite webOS 1.4 feature? Flash 10 plug-in support. We have been dying to get Flash on our iPhone and BlackBerry, but it doesn’t seem like it is coming all that soon. Palm has beat them to the punch by adding it into webOS 1.4. Also coming along is video recording where users will be able to capture video, edit the video, and share the video on YouTuve, Facebook, email, or MMS right from the phone. webOS will be available as a over-the-air update.

Palm released the Pre Plus on the Verizon Wireless network today. Customers can now go online or into stores and purchase the new phone. A few weeks ago we did a hands-on post when we got to play around with the phone at CES, but now we have one in our possession and we decided to unbox it for you. Check out the full video after the jump.

With the announcement of the Palm pre pixi and pixi plus, Palm has also announced a new application that will be available soon for webOS phones. Mobile Hotspot will allow users to turn their pre or pixi into a wireless hotspot. This is a new way to tether your phone to your computer, without having to get a device like the MiFi. There is no word on carrier pricing for tethering via the Mobile Hotspot app, but we are assuming that it will not be free.

The long waited and anticipated Palm Pre smartphone has finally revealed a release date for Bell today and should be available on August 27. The Palm Pre was released about 2 months back for Sprint subscribers in the United States and we have heard many good things about it but Canadian users seem to have always been late on cellphone releases. No information yet on pricing but expect it to be the same price as when Sprint released it. Maybe this will attract some of the people that are waiting on the iPhone 3GS that’s sold out nation-wide in Canada.
