Apart from the Pre 3 and the HP Touchpad that saw the light of the day today, we have one tiny entrant to the WebOS family in the form of the HP Veer. The Veer is a WebOS powered smartphone that seems to be successor the existing Pixi line up. The Veer gets a 2.6-inch multitouch capable display with a decent 320×400 pixel resolution. Like most Palm devices, the smaller size didn’t stop the HP engineers to pack in a slide out, physical keyboard on to the device which mind you, is still something most Palm users swear by.
Like elder bro, the Pre 3, the Veer too gets a 5 megapixel camera at the rear. On the connectivity front too, it is as capable as the Pre 3 compete with Wi-Fi b/g/n, USB and Bluetooth support. The number crunching bit is taken care of by an 800 MHz Qualcomm MSM7230 processor.
The Veer gets 8GB of storage and weighs in a shade over 100 grams. It gets a 910 mAH non removable battery – which should be an acceptable trade-off for the lack of size.
The Veer would be made available to the general public by spring.
Again, my only hope that HP manages to up the battery life. Pre Plus sucked in that department
