Today HP announced the Veer, a webOS smartphone with a full side-out QWERTY keyboard, 2.6-inch screen, gesture area, HSPA+, Wi-Fi mobile hotspot, and a 5-megapixel camera. Under the hood is an 800 MHz Snapdragon processor and 8 GB of storage memory. It looks very similar to the Pre 2. It will be available this spring.

hmmm
i really think that releasing the mid range before the high end is a dumb idea...and i guess everything else about the marketing of the pre ...sigh.... i hope they get a better keyboard... webOS despite what eveything people would say i think is one of the best...
Yawn
no flash on the camera=fail and I dont like my phones too big but this is just too small like credit card small come on that is uncomfortable to talk on. I don't think hp is making strong enough moves here to thrive
Just as hideous as the Pre1, Pre2, and now Pre3...
You can slide it open to talk so it feels bigger in your hand. Or use the hands-free device so you don't have to hold the phone at all while talking...
