Computerworld - Palm Inc. is set to debut a second WebOS smartphone, code-named Pixie, this week during Fashion Week in New York, according to a report from Techcrunch.com.
Some details about the Pixie surfaced in April, noting it would have the same operating system as the Palm Pre available from Sprint Nextel Corp., but with the Pixie selling for $99. The Pre sells for $200 after $100 rebate.
In April, Engadget pulled together some specs on the device, which it claimed would be sold by AT&T "if it's really coming."
Several sources have cited suppliers in Asia saying the phone will actually be called the Palm Eos. It will have a 2.63-inch touch display and a keyboard below that, making it almost like an updated Centro device from Palm that runs the Palm OS.
