Palm Pre Plus vs. Motorola DROID, who wins? I am going to compare Palm Pre Plus and Motrola DROID side by side. Both phones cost a bit of money, with DROID $50 more than the $99 Palm Pre, not a huge difference in terms of pricing. DROID is a bit faster when it comes to loading web pages. Some people might find the DROID keyboard easier to use because of the size. My take - if you want to save some money, go for the Pre. I don’t really see what you can’t do on the Pre Plus if they can be done on the Motorola DROID.
