Palm Pre Plus Coming to Verizon This Month
The exclusive darling of Sprint since it debuted last year, the Palm Pre is finally coming to Verizon Wireless on January 25th.
A new Palm Pre is coming to Verizon, and in just a few weeks.
During the Palm press conference today, CEO Jon Rubinstein announced that Verizon Wireless would be getting a new and improved version of the company's highly-successful Pre smartphone.
Dubbed the Pre Plus, this new handset features double the internal memory of the original Pre (16 GB compared to 8 GB). The Pre Plus also does away with the home/navigation button on the front of the original Pre, and includes a touchstone-compatible cover right out of the box.
There is no official word on pricing just yet, but I would guess that the Pre Plus wil be about $200 with a two year contract.

I found the addition of 3D games, Flash, video recording/editing, and the developer program release and update far more interesting, but more carriers make the investors happy.
Wow finally what I have been waiting for!
Either this or the blackberry touch phone will be my next choice.
this is much nicer than a blackberry touch as it only has 256mb of ram (storm2) and the browser on the bberry is nothing compared to the palm. Also, the bberry's email services does not support activesync, you'll need BES or the crappy BPS to synch realtime for email, contacts, calendar.
