The Palm Pre is still sitting in my pocket right now, waiting to serve my every communications need. Less than a month since the launch, the Pre is in the news daily with interest in the WebOS-based smartphone still high. Here is a little roundup of Pre news floating around the web:
GSM Palm Pre spotted in Vietnam. Palm has always said it will produce a GSM version of the Pre to address non-CDMA markets. A Pre with a SIM card appeared on the web proving that what we knew all along is true.
UK Pre Announcement to come next week. That would be the GSM version we knew was coming, and Palm has confirmed the announcement. We’ll have to wait and see what it says for an actual date for the UK launch (sound familiar?).
Palm has sold 370,000 devices so far. Barron’s is reporting that Palm sold 70,000 Pres in May and over 300,000 units in June. The analyst reports that Palm is producing 15,000 units a day and will deliver over 1 million to Sprint in the first quarter.
