Agreed. When I picked up the Pixi, I didn't as so much choose a phone, but a carrier. Verizon is just too damn expensive. Granted they (are said) to have the best coveragre, in terms of total areas, but where I am (Metro Detroit area) Sprint's coverage is rock solid. All things considered, it's not rocket science for Palm. The more carriers the 2 phones are made available to, the more (potential) sales they will see. IMO, the exclusive on the Pre hurt, more then it helped Palm.
