Verizon to get the Pre and Storm 2 over the next six months; Android handsets as well
The day just got even more exciting as Verizon Wireless’ Lowell McAdam told Reuters “over the next six months or so you will see devices like Palm Pre [sic] and a second generation Storm” being offered up by Big Red. Putting the Storm 2 aside since we’ve known it is bound for Verizon for months already, we can’t help but feel Sprint’s pain as its stock slides south following McAdam’s statement. All else aside, it’s no mystery that the Pre and future webOS devices would be headed to other networks such as Verizon and AT&T but Sprint would have certainly preferred it if investors weren’t constantly reminded over the past few days. With the launch just over a week away and Sprint having confirmed that shortages are likely, things aren’t looking good at all. As a side note, Reuters updated its article to note that Android devices are headed to VZW as well.
Thanks, E!




You have your interpertation and I have mine, the fact is his verbiage leaves it open for debate and calling into question my comprehension skills/education isn’t changing that
All I said was the statement as it stands leave room to assume w/o real facts and my understanding of it, nothing more. It’s all the rest, including you, trying to make it unquestionable which it is
JJ, why are you insisting on trying to correct my OPINION. The statement isn’t clear and that’s that. I could care less what anyone else says because “devices like” is enough for me, if it in like 6 months we’ll get Pre ans Storm 2 there would be nothing said. I read the quote in many places and it still comes off the same way, to me. Let it go because you won’t change that
Wow can’t believe this is still being debated! Palm Pre is coming to VZ. Not a device like the Palm Pre.
JJ,
You’re a smart person wish I knew you personally! I could really use the help with my grammar, it sucks!
You know what they say about opinions? “Opinions are like a$$holes everyone has one”!
I do believe they will get the Pre, just not when they say they will because looking at past Palm releases on vzw, they are more than a little late. Pawning off the EOS as like will probably be thier subs in 6 months, which will still be after ATT and Sprint.
No, the Pre’ is not going to VZW anytime soon (i.e. 6 months). VZW probably will be the last if ever to get the Palm Pre’ or iPhone. Sorry.
I keep saying this in diff sites, but read it carefully.
“over the next six months or so you will see devices LIKE Palm Pre [sic] and a second generation Storm”
I believe this means they will get the EOS, not the Pre itself.
sorry – i see this discussion is overplayed – seems I was wrong. I’d be glad if I am, b/c Verizon does have a great network.
