Yep. Before I got to the Sprint store, neither Palm nor Sprint had anything Pre-related available/accessible on their sites.
By the time I stirred up that (favorable) hornets nest by telling them where they could find info about the Pro, they'd also checked Sprint's site and found that it was NOW (then) possible to preregister.
Again, I think they were just keeping a super-tight lid on things by having a buffer between the end of their announcement and the time that Representative SuchnSuch pushes the button that makes Pre info go live.
