Palm Pre Plus Named PhoneNews Phone of the Year for 2010

While it might be jumping the gun a little bit, PhoneNews has named the Palm Pre Plus Phone of the Year for 2010. There's still a lot of phones scheduled to come out, but Phone News looked at those and said that Palm Pre Plus is better now. What did they say specifically?

"The Palm Pre Plus simply has more built-in functionality than any other phone we’ve seen. In addition to answering the featuresets of iPhone and Android, there isn’t any major features that even Windows Phone 7 Series can claim as beating Palm’s webOS. From an always updating push notification service, to comprehensive (and free) sync services, webOS is on top...

...Big or small, the Palm Pre Plus defines what you should have in a modern smartphone....

...In short, the Palm Pre Plus is likely to stay on top for 2010, and we think it’s the best buy out there. The Palm Pixi Plus is also a great choice, though it has a smaller screen, and comes down to personal preference for many."

You can't get too much glowing than that, can you? This is particularly noteworthy because the Palm Pre Plus isn't only marginally different than the Palm Pre... a phone that came in the middle of 2009. That shows a lot of the value in the WebOS where it can smack down iPhone, Android, and the upcoming Windows System 7 Phone Series. Now if only they had some advertising to spread the word.

(And yes, I specifically left that part about the Pixi Plus in there.)
