Announced early this morning on the official Palm blog -
Sprint has announced today that the Palm Pre will be available on June 6. Sprint announced that it will be available nationwide in Sprint stores, as well as at Best Buy, Radio Shack, and select Wal-Mart stores. The webOS-based phone will retail for $199.99 (after rebate and service agreement).
If you read the small print at the bottom of the announcement, an unlimited data plan will be required for use with the phone, as many people suspected. It doesn't seem as though Sprint has updated their current data plans or developed new ones exclusively for the Pre. The Pre section of the Sprint site hasn't been updated with any new information as of 10AM (EST) this morning.
So do you think it was an accident or convenient coincidence that it is being released on D-Day?
