can't decide should i get a Palm pre for $200 or HTC HERO for $279 ???

I like the Pre experience better, but it's a MUCH more delicate device. For the record, I had the Pre and went to the Hero, kind of regret it now.
I'm trying to get by cheap on Verizon with essentially the same decision: Palm Pre Plus or Droid Eris. Which one do you guys think is better?
the pre plus has more storage, (16gb), and you can also use it a hot spot.
Ummm, maybe it's $40/month from Verizon, but any custom ROM will get you hotspot capability on the Hero, and it's an easy homebrew app for the Pre on Sprint.
As for the Pre's storage, we're talking Sprint not Verizon, so the Pre will have 8GB, the Hero will have whatever card you put into it, up to 32GB, which is as yet unreleased.
I personally loved the Pre, but since I've been playing with Android 2.1 on the Hero, I have NO issue recommending it. There's no lag, no issues, just an overall SOLID device.
Using it as a hot spot = $40 extra per month...yikes.
I had a Droid, and it was great. I liked it a lot. I'm concerned about the battery life of both devices (pre plus/droid eris).
Are you serious? 40 a month for a fuckin hot spot? Wow thats taxing when the speed isnt no where near as fast as a home isp/router, and i dont care about the convenience of having it anywhere .

Just went from Samsung Instinct to the Palm Pre. Not a bad phone but dont like the how the Google visual voicemail works on it.
So now I just bought a Saamsung Moment off Ebay and will compare the two.
If worse comes to worse I will sell both of them and go back to my Instinct which has the Sprint enahnced voicemail which I really like The Moment is supposed to have the Sprint enhanced voicemail too so Im hoping to use that instead of the Google voicemail.
Tried the Samsung Moment and ended up selling it. Just too big and bulky for me. Everything was fine on it. I just bought a Hero off Ebay so will see how that works. If all else fails back to my trusty Instinct.
