    That's what they're saying. I don't know if that's true, but assuming that the demand for this phone is as high as some are predicting this could be a double edge sword for Sprint/Palm. Limited supplies worked for the Nintendo Wii, the iPhone, and the Storm, in that it created and even bigger buzz for those devices. They became must have devices. Could this work for Sprint/Palm? Yes. Will it? Not necessarily. Sprint/Palm do not carry the same appeal as Apple, RIM, or VZW. Those who cannot get the device might just look elsewhere. Sprint's reputation has been tarnished for years and by pricing the Pre at $300 ($200 after mail-in rebate) they might have price their way out of the competition. I mean, the iPhone 3G was $200 (no rebate). Many people hate mail-in rebate and often forget to, well, mail them in. You still have to fork over the $300 and them wait on the rebate, and if you forget to mail it in, they you've paid $100 more for a device and service that might be as good as say, AT&T + Apple or VZW + Storm.
