The Pre may still be at least a few weeks away, but photos via Twitpic by Laurence Toney (@lo_toney), a busy VP of Product and Marketing at Cake Financial, shows the new webOS device running a YouTube app, composing an e-mail, and compared to an iPhone in size, reports Everything Pre and a forum member on Precentral.
The photos have since been removed, but one can guess that the device is outside the hands of Palm employees, a rare occurrence. The last time the device was spotted was at a crowded public event in San Francisco and in the possession of Ludle International, a Chinese accessory manufacturer.
The device is bound to pop up here and there as time progresses, but the latest sighting raises a number of questions: For example, could lo_tony be a Pre beta tester? (we all remember Jim Van, an alleged beta tester who discussed the Pre via Twitter). Also, how does the YouTube app on the Pre perform relative to the iPhone counterpart? And did he make calls on the device, and if so what were his impressions of it? (the signal strength in the status bar looks good). It also looks to still have the original screen protector on, visible in the first pic. What do you make of the latest sighting?
