OMG this is so exciting. I haven’t had the occasion to see actual proof to a rumor for a long time. Our colleagues at BGR got their hands on a memo which clearly shows that the Palm Pre is coming on June 5th. The anonymous tipster didn’t give any details, he said that this is an official internal Palm memo from a meeting in June. Well, this is a three-day meeting, but the first two days are boring while the 3rd day comes with the Launch Lunch.
I have to admit that you cannot entirely rely on this memo, however, we all know that companies love when we talk about them, and when rumors surface. From what I know, they are the ones who release info to the press as a marketing strategy, but this doesn’t matter now. We just have to be patient. One more month. I must say that I was beginning to get tired of the speculation regarding Palm Pre’s launch, but all of that is gone now. I cannot wait to take a bite of the webOS pie.
Well, I think that the Palm Launch Lunch is actually Pre’s launch. Also remember that Best Buy will start the Palm Pre trial launch on June 7 therefore the webOS-based handset should definitely be released sooner. Stay tuned, we will come with more information as soon as we find out more.
I got a Sprint Pre Launch invitation on June 5th at 6p at a local Sprint phone, where it says that I can buy the Pre for $199 after $100 MIR.
