Now you no longer need to buy your fave Palm Pre from Best Buy or Sprint. You can instead purchase it online from Amazon. The beautiful smartphone has just arrived on the super retailer’s website. The best thing about getting this phone from Amazon is that you don’t need to care about mail-in rebates and such other stuff, as it is available for a nice $199.99.
Also, you can get the Palm Pre from Amazon, without contract, for $499.99, which is a good $50 lesser than when you purchase from Sprint. Incidentally, Best Buy’s pricing for the same is $749.99, which means, purchasing from Amazon makes it dirt cheap. The catch? Well, Amazon says that they will not begin shipping for the next 4-6 weeks, which is the pathetic bit here.

It’s a well-known fact that Verizon is still lusting after the Palm Pre, though the company tried very hard to play it down. Verizon’s aim was to overthrow Sprint’s hold on the smartphone. But Sprint wasn’t giving into its rival’s opinions and remarks even back then, during its launch.
Verizon, is anyway, in no mood to give up its quest for the Pre. They have now claimed that they will be getting the Palm Pre “early next year”. Of course, Palm must be feeling extremely flattered with all the attention they are getting. Good place to be, huh?

The latest gaffe from Palm and Best Buy has (sadly) just been corrected. Best Buy’s most recent ads of the Palm Pre showed the smartphone’s price as a mere $99, along with a 2-year contract. Needless to say, we were more than just a little thrilled – imagine getting that gorgeous baby at such low rates!
Too bad our thrill was short-lived, for Best Buy marketing manager John Bernier has now declared that the “pricing was an error” and that it has now been corrected. Well, we wonder whether someone actually managed to get this cutie for the aforementioned rate. Any lucky guys out there among you? Let us know.
