I’m not sure whether this is a typo or not, but Sprint is saying that Palm Pre users will be able to grab the latest (and greatest) version (1.3.5) of the webOS today. I don’t have the Pre, so I can’t check that out myself. Hence, I’m writing to “warn” all the Pre users to be prepared for tons of bug fixes that should make their beloved smartphone snappier and more stable than ever. If anyone of you updates his/her Pre, don’t hesitate to drop us a line, k?
UPDATE:
The update is said to include the following enhancements:
- Improvement in battery life optimization when in marginal coverage areas.
- QCELP capability fix to allow play and audio of video sent via MMS.
- Launch Google Maps or Sprint Nav when tapping an address from contacts.
- Minimized package of MR size through binary difference. Customers can now download over 2G connections if necessary.
