Got opinions? Become a Real Reviewer (and get a new phone courtesy of Palm)

Are your Facebook updates all about your experience with your phone? Do you know what "FP" means? (And are your blog comments a bit more substantive than that?) If you can tweet your opinions about Palm phones in 140 characters or less, we want to hear from you. (Heck, now that all of Shakespeare's plays have been condensed for Twitter, it should be a piece of cake to tweet your nuanced thoughts about your favorite phone features.)

We're looking for a few "Real Reviewers" to share their opinions about Palm phones across the blogosphere, social networks and beyond. If you're selected as a Real Reviewer, we'll provide you with a current-model phone and data-plan service for six months. We'll expect you to regularly share your thoughts about your experiences with your phone on whatever blogs and social networks you frequent (but you're already doing that, right?). We might even invite you to guest blog about your experiences right here on Palm's blog or host a discussion board on our Facebook page.

What's the catch? There's really just one: be yourself. Whether you're a fanboy or a skeptic, we want to hear from you.

Ready to become a Real Reviewer? Apply here by answering a few questions about yourself. We're looking for a mix of Palm veterans and newcomers, from all walks of life. (There are a couple of restrictions, though: You must be a U.S. resident and at least 18 years old.)

If you're interested, apply now -- we'll notify selected Real Reviewers on May 8.

This is really cool! My friends and I have all been talking about the pre since the announcement!! I have been talking it up a an iphone killer. I hope it's true!

[Lucas]

Can't wait for may 8th. I will be eagerly awaiting the day!

Gush! It would be cool to integrate the rest of the world to have the chance and review Palm phone, specially Pre!.

It doesnt matter the Cell provider, it does matter the review of the phone, utillities, if its what should, and a lot of details. I hope anytime soon you can make this offer available in Argentina so I can post my reviews on www.techlatina.com.
Thanks! and keep up the good work!

[Brandy]

I did testing for the centro through centercode :) I can't wait for the PRE to be released.

[Jeff]

I hope I get this opportunity, I think it would be real cool to tell others about Palm's new devices. WebOS looks soooo coooolllll!!!

[khang]

omg, i can't believe the pre is coming out soon. i'm waiting for it, so bad.. i can't sleep.

[Corinne Vizconde]

I just found out about this. I just applied. And I just tweeted that I just applied. I'd blog about it, but I've got no access to it at present. Oops.

I remember blogging about the Pre announcement at CES a few months ago... and I'm just as excited now as I was in January. I hope to be one of the lucky ones selected!

I started a blog called PalmPreReviewer.com, so yes, I've got opinions!

I'm a die-hard Blackberry (8900 Curve) user with a soft spot for the Palm Pre.

I hope I get chosen too! I have been following the pre for a long time! I am very good about writing about technology I love online, so I would be a great choice :) I wonder how many they will give away.

[CoyoteUgly]

[Tom]

I'd love to review this. Apple just exchanged my iphone again. I'm now on iPhone #4 and I'm sick and tired of it. It is a complete failure for me.

[Brad]

Hey thanks for the great opportunity! I filled out the survey and my fingers are crossed!

[Misty]

I don't have a touch phone but have envied the ones my friends use! I would love the chance to try one out but didn't want to buy one because I was afraid I wouldn't use all of the features! This would be a great chance to see how well they work! I emailed all my friends so they can apply to...I'll be so mad if they get picked and not me...lol!

[Rebecca]

Full-time working Mom of three adult daughters, two of which still live at home, one with a child so yes, I am a first-time 45 yr old "Grandma"! My job is very stress-filled and I am a 'Blackberryaholic", lol! Use my phone for waking up every day (alarm) to making lists, jotting down notes, surfing the web, watching videos and listening to music and checking my emails. Also use to check out my MySpace page to keep in touch with family and friends and oh yeah...use it as a PHONE too, lol! Never tried out a PALM before so, this should be interesting............

US only makes Jack a dull boy.

Well, I'm from Brazil. I'll have to play wait and see.

Anyway, you can contact me, with you want. (I'm so not seeing it).
