The Palm Pre smartphone is the latest device to undergo the teardown service of research and advisory firm iSuppli, which disassembles devices in order to offer a closer look at the choices the manufacturer has made and what this could mean for customers. In the Palm Pre, iSuppli found components from Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Sony and Samsung Electronics primarily. "With the Pre, Palm has made some surprising choices not only in the phone's features, but also in its design and component selection," wrote iSuppli's Andrew Rassweiler, a director and principal analyst, in a statement on the teardown.
