Palm Blog: Become a Real Reviewer (and get a new phone courtesy of Palm)
Posted on 30 April 2009, at 5:08 am, by Federico Cervelli
If you are a loyal Palm user, if are still confident that Cobalt will save the world, if you believe in Palm Pre, you can’t miss this.
Go to The Official Palm Blog, complete the online questionnaire and you will have a chance to be an official Palm reviewer (and you will also get a free Palm smartphone!!).
From the site:
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.

There’s half a gazillion review sites already. Will be interested to see how this works for Palm and how they pre-screen people. Sounds like a giveaway/marketing gimmick to me.

For sure the smartphone giveaway was the thing that moved me to make the review
However, I would be happy to be part of some Palm-ness to enhance their devices, especially the ones that are planned to come (hopefully…) in the next years, both WM and WebOS based.

Definitely a clumsy viral marketing attempt to seed fanboys with time to write loads of tweets and Facebook notes with a few phones.

Not only those who have time.
A real fanboy will always find the time!!
