Palm Pre - The Hottest Phone at CES

By Ramona Schindelheim, CNBC

"Wow!!" People who saw the Palm Pre in action couldn't stop saying "Wow". The Pre is the first phone based on Palm's revolutionary webOS mobile platform and is easily one of the most-talked-about new products at CES. webOS allows you to be constantly connected to the web. That means your calendar and contacts travel wherever you do. Your calendar isn't tied to one phone or other device. And it has a keyboard. It is definitely a very cool phone!

Roger MacNamee, co-founder of Elevation Partners and Palm investor, showed CNBC's Maria Bartiromo how it worked before co-anchoring Closing Bell from the NBCU booth.
