Palm Pre to be released on April 30th?
Take this with as much salt as a delicious freshly baked pretzel, but according to an alleged beta tester of the Palm Pre, the highly anticipated device will be released on April 30th for $299.99 with a two-year contract. The source of the information, Jim Van, works for Logicomm; an IT company based out of Rhode Island. Now, we know a lot of people are going to be excited about this, but we remain very, very skeptical. A few things working against the source: 1) He would certainly be under NDA from both Palm and Sprint forbidding him from discussing the product in private, let alone public. 2) Why would a beta tester have been told pricing and release date? 3) Then there’s the fact that no real and conclusive evidence is given, of course. We’d love to be wrong and have the Pre drop on us as early as possible but at this point in time, we’re still leaning towards late May/early June launch as we’ve stated in the past. Of course pushing it up to late April would be as great for Palm as it is unlikely — the more space between the Pre launch and the new iPhone announcement, the better.

@DonBitchy who said: “It just took four hours to repeat what’s out already, now the update or another on the vacation angle and a suspected launch date, please”
Blogs who regurgitate other blogs is your wildest wet-dream, eh? What a world-wide, snail-trail troll.
If only you had a more noble ethical spine, this toy’s release might actually mean something (at least for Palm fanboys) as it means nothing for anyone else.
Don’t be so sure, ignoring the buzz won’t make it go away
^Check and mate.
While one chooses to ignore what’s being said about the Pre from those that got to see it action, I’ll wait about a month after launch to get it myself. I learned from my Instinct experience.
Where’s that -verifiable- personal info of yours, DonVinnie Von BitchBoy? As previously pointed out to your purposely oblique ass, stating something as benign as ‘HSBC’ is akin to stating you work for the US government. Nothing more. Nothing less. You threaten me in numerous other blog posts with physical violence, yet pussy-out when it comes down to it. Got game? Bring it.
I’ve entertained your vitriol long enough, my job isn’t your concern and the promise of an ass whooping is in direct concert to the “ass-hatery”, man I like that word. See a therapist, better yet a psychologist about that obessive compulsive disorder
^Pussy-out? -Again-?? Yet you continue with your direct threats of violence against me? That’s the very definition of a cunt. So be it.
I’ve shit higher lifeforms than you, DonVinnie Von BitchBoy.
Ya get what ya give.
I can’t believe you two are still going at it!
I’m sorry that this is ongoing, Mr. Bettiol and Mr. Epstien did inform me the troll would be banned and I’m sure buddy got the same info but that righteous indignation is getting the best of her. Maybe Hmmmm, Roger A., Informed, gBEcib or celz can pick up cuz it’s a futile exercise trying to get this guy to see what he has already said himself, what works for one doesn’t work for all
^Can you believe that pussy threatened me with direct physical violence over a Palm product? BitchBoy either has nothing to live for and/or is “all-in” on the Premie. Either way, I’ll take this TrollingPimp up on its threat at the very moment it produces verifiable personal info as it swore to provide.
Moral of the story: Don’t start shit you can’t finish.
starting to believe you both have some type of psychological disorder(s)
^You’re talking to yourself -again-.
To whomever is the ultimate muppet-master [regardless of self-created genius-level]: Your intellectual repugnance lowers the collective IQ of the internet by no less than 25 points.
I have to laugh out loud when I visualize your fathers, at your age, doing the very same muppet show for a living. What congenital stooges!
