Prepare for Apple's self-resizing iPhone interface

Brilliant

Although I do wonder how well it would integrate (if at all) with 3rd party apps. Could be difficult to design a UI that zooms gracefully the way Apple intends.

Palm Pré WebOS: video guide

Great video review

Regardless of whether or not you like video reviews, this is the best one of the Pre that I have seen. The Palm rep knows what he's talking about, mentions the tech specs and capabilities of the device as though he actually understands what he's saying, rather than just regurgitating some memorised numbers, and he seems genuinely enthused about the device.

The image quality of the video is also very good, I was able to clearly see see the finer points of the UI interactions and was able to get a reasonably good idea of how responsive the UI was, which are two things that can not be communicated to me in a written/photographic review, yet are extremely important to me in determining the quality of a device.
