Keep using Palm OS applications you've grown to love. With Classic you can use mature and perfected applications that have been developed over the years and run them on your new powerful Pre. Just go ahead, have it all.

While the Pre is going to debut with only around 20 applications in the App Catalog one of those apps will let you run thousands of Palm OS applications on your Pre right now. Classic can be downloaded via the App Catalog on the Pre. A 7 day fully functional trial is available, Classic will cost $29.99 upon registering.

$29.99 is a bit expensive for an application, and I have a feeling the price will get reduced like many iPhone developers did when they realized people aren't going to pay that much for an application. If you're getting a Pre and you want the ability to run thousands of Palm OS applications along with new Palm webOS applications right out of the gate give Classic a try (at least you can try before you buy with Palm's App Catalog;) ).
