[Pre] WebOS 1.4 With Free Need 4 Speed, Sims, and Monopoly

It seems Palm has eventually understood that Germany might be an important market for their Pre. The Pre is the most sold smartphone on the carrier O2 Germany. O2 Germany yesterday started to distribute webOS 1.4. The update we’ve all been waiting for desperately.

Free commercial Games for german customers

Sadly Electronic Arts’ free download offer for:

  • Need for Speed
  • The Sims
  • Monopoly

is for german customers only. Sorry guys from whereever you are.

WebOS comes with some minor ;-) feature additions:

  • Video recording and editing

  • Better performance when starting apps
  • Telephone app performs a lot faster
  • Longer battery runtime
  • Messaging software allows calling numbers directly

  • phone numbers can be called from the calendar
  • E-mails can be sorted by date, sender, and subject
