Pre3 will be released to Verizon and AT&T?

**Garrett92C** · 02/09/2011, 04:07 PM

From the source code of Palm's Pre3 page:

No mention of Sprint or T-Mobile...

<edit>
Just wanted to say that this does NOT confirm that Sprint will not be getting the Pre3. It's possible that this code was left in by accident. It's odd that this commented out code doesn't appear in the Veer's source though...

I really hope I'm wrong about this!

It's not surprising considering HP's other uneven decisions..

say it ain't so

**barrysanders20** · 02/09/2011, 04:16 PM

Didn't they just release the Pre 2 on Verizon?

**Garrett92C** · 02/09/2011, 04:16 PM

This doesn't completely rule out Sprint, but it doesn't look too promising...

It may be a decision by Sprint and T-Mobile?

Sprint needs to get on this pronto. I'm tired of being a second-class customer when it comes to Palm equipment.

oh hell naww they really just dropped the ball.... This BETTER be a rumor or WP7 here I come....

**Reeves** · 02/09/2011, 04:18 PM

Why scoop up low hanging fruit, when you can launch late on the two most competitive carriers?

It's not a rumor. It's from the official Palm website, buried in the page source.

I was just saying on another thread, every Sprint user needs to call/email/chat/facebook/tweet Sprint and hound the hell out them to get their attention to the Pre3 then.

Well, T-Mobile's issue is probably with using that 1700Mhz 3G frequency.

Who knows what's Sprint's issue is. Maybe they don't want it because it's not going to have WiMax...

LOL Then HP needs to get out of the business if they're letting the likes of these two dictate things..

**ArchonAdvisors** · 02/09/2011, 04:20 PM

Sprint users, Assemble!!!!

I guess that's a possibility. Very doubtful though...

Same commented-out section on the TouchPad page as well.

**Courousant** · 02/09/2011, 04:24 PM

Any word on carriers for the Veer?
