Leo Calls Arrington Out for Palm Pre review

Yesterday, Leo Laporte called Mike Arrington out for implying that he’s giving positive reviews of the Palm Pre because he was sent a review unit (Arrington’s TechCrunch staff apparently had a reserved slot for a unit as well).
The argument runs deep into the core on the question of integrity and the lending of demo units. It makes me think back on the number of demo units I’ve received (sadly I can’t afford to buy them all) and returned after the lending period. I looked over the box where I keep these things and I found a Motorola RAZR which Moto hadn’t bothered to get back after trying to return it to them. I think it’s because they closed the mobile division last year and didn’t really care much for it anymore. Oh well.
But yeah, this Leo and Mike bit. At least they’ve mended fences.
All because of the Palm Pre.
