Read the fine print:
**but don't expect the Pre to be fully functional, as we plan to cripple the hell out of it**

I am with Verizon now, and I prefer to stay.. but I cant wait 6mos... ugg.

they also have absurd data plans. Screw 'em

I dont believe this and will plan on switching. Maybe if Palm also mentions it I would wait.

Ya im still switching. Verizon lies and always takes alot longer. Their plans are more expensive, and also they make u pay for each additional option u want and attempt to screw u over at every turn. So gooodbye verizon. Hello Sprint and the Pre :)

FUD, FUD, FUD. First ATT's CEO makes comments in relation the Pre, a day later Verizon is running with similar comments. Where are the Palm official saying the same thing?... Odd isn't it? Other words, Verizon and ATT are saying to their customers, "please don't leave us for Sprint." I am shocked that these blogs which are dedicated to the Plam Pre are running with this speculation. Here is the comment from Verizon: "Over the next six months or so you will see devices lIKE Palm Pre and a second generation Storm," on the Verizon Wireless networks McAdam said. I capitalized the word "LIKE". That being said, I seriously doubt the Pre is going to ATT or Verizon.

THE KEY WORD IS >>>> LIKE

the key word is {like} the palm pre not the palm pre this is not true so dnt get exited

The other key word being "6 months OR SO". Or so what 9 months or a year?

My understanding is sprint has a 2yr contract w/ palm on it. similar to what ATT has w/ the Iphone.

key words being "devices LIKE the Palm Pre" They aren't saying they are getting the Pre... they are being sneaks (like usual) and saying devices LIKE it are coming. Barf. I'll stay with Sprint.
