My Laser Engraved Palm Pre

After getting the matte Touchstone battery door, the standard glossy cover was just sitting in my desk drawer collecting dust. Then came a tweet from @spckeishou (Mark), whom suggested getting the glossy back engraved for free at the Sprint Studio that he works at. And after a few days, my glossy battery door was off to the studio for engraving!

[Thank you, Mark!]

iPhone 3.0 to have Pre-like features, copy and paste and...

Kevin Rose has a good track record when it comes to Apple rumors. Last night during a live Diggnation show at SXSW in Austin, he excites iPhone users with crumbs of what's to come in iPhone OS 3.0. What we got from Kev so far is copy and paste and features that "bring it up to speed with the Palm Pre stuff". What we know for sure is that it can't do full multitasking with its current hardware. In addition, no MMS, no Video and no Background Apps -- at least for 3.0.

Video after the break.
