Touchstone is a wireless charging base for the Palm Pre, one of the first magnetic induction chargers to make its way out of the bathroom. Let’s just hope that performance doesn’t cost too much in battery life. Little has been revealed about the chip (or any of the other hardware components for that matter), but we do know that it’s high-powered enough to handle multiple apps running (15-20) and acceleration for the graphics overlays. The TI OMAP chip is the great wizard running the show in Pre’s Emerald City.

(This is a bit reminiscent of the Mac OSX Dock.) Up pops the dock-viewable in the homescreen but otherwise invisible when you’re doing stuff-for a quick change of activity. One touted use for the gesture area is the wave dock, which appears whenever you drag your finger up from the gesture area to the screen. They say the gesture area will make it easier to move through WebOS without the need for a second hand.

Palm said they implemented the gesture area because they feel one-handed control directly on the touchscreen itself can be difficult at times. Like the screen itself, that area is fully multitouch-capable, and allows you to perform various gesture-based actions within WebOS. The gesture area is the black space that extends below the screen of the Pre. It’s smaller than the iPhone in surface area, but it’s noticeably thicker-even thicker than the BB Bold. It also has a 3.5mm headphone jack, 3MP camera on the back (w/LED flash) all in a 4.8-ounce package. The phone has a multitouch screen and, when the keyboard is hidden, just three physical controls: A top button, a side volume rocker, clickable button at the bottom. The vertical keyboard was used partially to stand out from other phones, and partially to adhere to the philosophy of easy one-handed use. It uses the same curved sliding action found on phones like the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1. Palm’s Pre smartphone is unusual in that it slides vertically to reveal the QWERTY keyboard.

Micro USB connection with mass storage support.
