It has already been known that the Pre will have stuff like searching through Twitter, iTunes syncing and the App Catalog, but now Jon Rubinstein, Palm executive chairman, and Roger McNamee, Palm director, have officially presented the features. Here is a quick reminder of what the Pre does: first off, we have Palm Media Sync, which will be used for synchronization between your phone and iTunes, allowing you to transfer DRM-free music, video and image content in a snap. Score one for Apple’s app. The officials have also talked about the new functionality, built in the universal search capability of webOS. Searching will include Twitter’s current events and news, delivering fresh info fast and easy, without you having to register a Twitter account. Last but not least, a demo version of the App Catalog has been demonstrated as well. The Palm Pre will come with the App Catalog beta, bringing applications by developers like AP News, Citysearch, Fandango, Pandora and uLocate.
