Palm Pre finds fan off the grid

Alright, so you've no doubt seen plenty of Palm Pre reviews by this point (even if there's only one you really need), but we're guessing you haven't seen one quite like this one from PreCentral forum user Michael Bunker, who has been using the phone completely off the grid for the past three weeks (if you don't count the cell service, that is). Among other things, Bunker found that the Pre was particularly helpful for selling cows over the internet, keeping watch on any oncoming tornadoes, checking for the cheapest gas prices in the nearby towns, and catching up on the odd TV show (since he doesn't have an actual TV). Of course, he does also have a few complaints about the phone, including the familiar refrain of hoping to "see some more apps." Hit up the link below for the full review.

This from the same site that has wall-to-wall obnoxious ads for Made-in-China plastic garbage in your face on every page?? The same site which believe in anything (and I mean "ANYTHING") for a buck??
The same site that hasn't a clue of the definition of 'integrity' or 'dignity'?? The same site which believes that there is no such thing as 'bad' publicity??
Leave it to one of the 'Centrals' to bring out a story like this. Their senior people are criminals yet to be fitted for their orange jumpsuits!
