With all the hype that surrounded the June release of the Palm Pre, the idea of further phones using the webOS system was widely disregarded. Many assumed the the success of the Pre would dictate the release of any further phones, and the Palm's very existence was reliant on the flagship webOS handset being a smash. The small rumor of another phone name 'Eos' or 'Pixie' seemed little more than a figment of an over zealous fan wanting to contribute to the ... Read More

Price available after $150 instant and $100 mail-in rebate.

Hot off the presses... and by presses, I mean Sprint Press Releases...
Within hours of offering Palm® Pre™ – the most widely anticipated electronic device of the year – eager customers delivered the result: a record Sprint (NYSE:S) sales debut.
By late Sunday, Palm Pre had broken previous sales records (first day and first weekend) for a Sprint device.
"Sprint is a very different ... Read More

Honestly, I can't complain about my Pre much. Are there little tiny things that could stand to be tweaked or improved? Absolutely, but none of them are deal breakers for me and that seems to be the consensus but there because I've yet to hear from fellow Pre owners regretting their purchase. All in all, I'm very satisfied.
I couldn't have been more satisfied with my buying experience either. I was invited to a Palm Pre Launch even on June 5th so my ... Read More

Sprint just sent out this email to their customers, at least the ones signed up to receive emails from Sprint. It's just a courteous reminder that the Pre arrives tomorrow and that... you should all go buy it immediately! As the email states, Sprint stores will open early, at 8am, tomorrow so hurry because I'm sure, in this case especially, the early bird catches the worm. Read More

There has been a lot of discussion being thrown around as to whether or not Sprint Premier customers invited to these Launch Parties will indeed be able to purchase a Pre tonight before its official launch tomorrow. The invitation states a big fat yes but that didn't stop other from calling, emailing, and harassing Sprint about it and some claim they've heard back that no, we won't be able to purchase the Pre early. I can't put everyone's mind at ease about ... Read More

With the highly anticipated release of the Pre just a mere hours away, I just couldn't resist getting to know where your heads are at about getting a Pre. Apparently, the folks over at CNET share the same curiosity which is why you will find a poll currently open on their "Crave" blog about whether or not consumers plan on getting the Pre.
As it stands right now (after 3043 votes), when asked the question, "Now that the reviews are out and they've ... Read More

I can't remember the last time I had a phone that welcomed me with a video... and maybe that's because I don't think I have had one do it at all. Well, enter the Pre... the new love of my life. (I'd like to apologize to my significant other but it's the truth. Love hurts, boo.) My Macs have always welcomed me with a nice multi-lingual video intro and now the Palm re promises to do the same (minus the multi-lingual bit). ... Read More

File this under rumors and speculation, people... got that? Okay, now we can move on.
Our source at Sprint has informed us that there are some minor rumblings going around that the company might do away with the mail-in rebate for the Pre in favor of an instant rebate. As you might have guessed, this is in part due to retail pressure from outlets like Best Buy Mobile and RadioShack which offer the instant rebate on phones. Sprint is hoping that by matching ...

Palm are showing off the power of the built-in camera that comes on the Palm Pre. They linked via their Twitter account to this yfrog page where you can clearly see that the camera used was labelled as the the Palm Pre. For all intents and purposes the 3 megapixel sensor looks as if it's gonna hold up pretty well. Read More
