However, at letstalk.com you CAN get it for $99 with a contract, shipping in a day or so (at least you could the last time I checked).

Its already available on Everything Plus Referral -- you can order online now.

Why does it matter, though? It's not really necessary.

I have well over a 1000 contacts that I do not wish to manually into a new phone.

Mark,

I don't have an exchange, though I do get Push Mail from Bell (not the same thing ofcourse). And I don't want to drop the hundreds of bucks just to set up an exchange when my previous phone could just sync my calendar, contacts etc whenever I plugged it into my computer.

Sweet Greggo,

I thought Pocket Mirror was just for the old Palm platform. Does it actually work with WebOS, and is it free?]]>Aug 3rd 2009 4:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Aug 2nd 2009 11:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Aug 2nd 2009 11:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Aug 2nd 2009 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Aug 3rd 2009 1:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Returned mine twice.

I -hate- the Palm Pre ads. Hate them. No, that's not quite it... I HATE them. They have a level of smugness that would smother Bill O'Reilly. I superficial importance that makes a mud puddle seem like an ocean. Plus that girl looks like she's trying hard to break into the uncanny valley from the human side (or just pulling back her hair so hard that it's flattening her face).

I can't recall when I last found any ad so repellent.

Does Best Buy actually sell the Pre for $749.99, or do they just claim that as the list price so that they can pretend to give you $250 off?]]>Aug 3rd 2009 12:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Aug 3rd 2009 12:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/

I don't know how the one-day effect will go over though. I don't think Sprint will enjoy all these $99 false-starts. It's going to make buyers wait.]]>Aug 3rd 2009 4:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/
Thought you would want to know, LetsTalk has just countered Amazon's sale with their own Pre one-day sale.

$99, today only. And, unlike Best Buy, this time it's for real:

http://www.phonenews.com/sprint-palm-pre-99.99-after-instant-discount-today-only-8621/

Or, in Engadget-speak:

OMGZ Pre is $99 for reals at LetsTalkz!!
OMGZ Pre is $99 for reals at LetsTalkz!!
OMGZ Pre is $99 for reals at LetsTalkz!!

Kidding, of course :)]]>Aug 3rd 2009 4:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/palm-pre-sales-go-live-at-amazon/Aug 3rd 2009 2:44PM
