The N9 was only two years behind the Palm Pre!

  Man WebOS was ahead of its time. Palm just couldnt put out a piece of hardware that wasnt riddled with defects. I guess it lives on in LG TVs but for the year or so before that palm pre broke it was great.

    I've still got a Z22 that I charge once in a while, and it blows me away with how responsive and useful it is. I'd probably still use it if calendar and notes sync were working. I should investigate...

    So far ahead it’s actually still a better UX than even today’s iOS, just phenomenally well done.

    As a sibling post says - I also still believe its UX and likely current responsiveness is better than anything out there now. I would probably still use webOS if there was still minimal open source development, some phone to put it on (or I guess I’d be fine getting a Pre 3) and the App Store not being shut down with all apps gone. The homebrew apps weren’t really meant to replace the App Store if I recall. A world where webOS has 5-10% market share as a stable 3rd place would be amazing.
