Palm announced their second webOS phone, the Pixi. With a name like that, one would expect a thinner, simpler phone and that’s exactly what you get. It’s a step down from the Pre in terms of specs but, hopefully, one can assume it’ll be cheaper as well. Now on to the details:

  • 2 megapixel fix-focused camera with LED flash
  • 2.63-inch multi-touch screen with a vibrant 18-bit color 320×400 resolution TFT display
  • Gesture area
  • Exposed QWERTY keyboard
  • Integrated GPS
  • Bluetooth 2.1 with stereo support
  • No Wi-Fi
  • Accelerometer & proximity sensor
  • EVDO Rev. A data speeds
  • 8GB internal storage
  • 3.5mm headphone jack
  • Rubberized back cover
  • “Artist Series” covers for personalization

The Palm Pixi should be available by the holidays through Sprint.

Check the full press release after the ‘leap’.
