Add to augustofretes’s list the following:
a better camera (3mp with led flash rather than 2mp with no flash, and also the palm’s camera is supposed to be very good for a 3mp one)
Copy and paste
MMS
open source platform
removable battery
bluetooth 2.1
Basically it takes inspiration from the iPhone but removes many of its faults, making it an iPhone killer — well, it might not be, but it seems like it.

FInally! a touch screen phone where the touch UI is as smooth as the iphone, maybe even a bit more so! I’ve held out from buying an Iphone simply because I don’t want to sign with at&t. I’m stuck on sprint mainly because I get a “Microsoft employee” discount, so this is perfect. Sprint never has good phones, until this one of course!

The truth is out there.

iPhone copy? DOn’t you mean the iPhone was a Palm//HTC/Sony copy?

For example, the Palm m500:
Description
Expand your horizons with this Internet-capable handheld.
Quick Specs
Palm OS 4.0, 8 MB DRAM, Motorola 33 MHzMC68VZ328, IrDA, 3.1 in x 0.4 in x 4.5 in, Stylus, Touch-screen

Specifications from 2001!

The iPhone set a new revolution by improving existing phones, not by inventing something completely new. The basic design, touch screen, etc had been around for more than 6 years.

An estimated of 199.

It’s a name genius.

It has true multitask, a better UI and a faster processor. How isn’t it an iPhone killer?

this phone its cool but no so far to be iphone killer. just other iphone copy. why is like the iphone. why companys can not make somthing totally different, almost same body and UI. n btw, the iphone, u can jailbreak and have all the freedom u want what phone got apps with P2P, download youtube videos, make beats on the go and then upload to ProTools, sync your DVR from anywhere, record videos, gps tracking, watch tv, control your pc without mouse. iPhone ***** (for name a few characters limit)

WOW i think this IS the iPhone Killer! Its quite cool…no its very cool, i dont have an iPhone but i know ppl who do and i think the novelty wheres off pretty quick, and i personally find it restrictive, this new Palm seems to give the user a lot of freedom to move stuff around etc.. nice!

palm pre brings palm back. great gestures. on-screen keyboard addition would be a plus point.
