[TheJustinCooley]

i just got tha new iphone

[xbox360707]

my sprint store had 40 palm pre's om release

[RileysWill]

i really truely dont think the pre is going to have the smallest effect on the market, they had a short run going competing with the iphone but with the new 3G S destroying it the pre doesnt have a chance.

when the 19th comes and the new phone is release , theres gonna be both demand , and supply. obviously not too much that they have to get rid of them , but they are going to be able to sell the phones.

i dont see how pre can make money selling only 3 units per store. when apple sells 100s

[merda85n]

Where did you get that info 3 units per store, all my local stores had around 60 units each, and sold out within 3 hours hear in st.louis.

I just went out today to try and get another palm pre for my step dad, after hearing new shipments are in 2 days ago, but was out of luck, they were all sold out in 4 different stores.

Now i know some areas may get 3 phones but thats only the areas where sprints coverage is low.

[KMSalex]

the only proplom with that is sprit coverage is low just about every where i mean i live in cental jersey and even when i go to new yourk i never get more then 4 bars 2 on avarage.

[jbrozenick]

I think the pre will do well. We are 3 weeks after launch and my local sprint store got 40 on launch day and have been getting about 20 each week after that, and they still have a waiting list a mile long.

They are selling like hot cakes, and I think it will be enough to keep Palm in the game, thus allowing them to continue supporting and improving WebOS thus giving iphone some real solid competition.

Any mature iphone user would understand how this is a good thing, and be happy about it.

Hey Bwana, I've been watching your videos for a while now. I've noticed that you use the word "notorious" a lot. You use this word at the wrong time. Notorious means to be known for a bad reason. Just saying...

[RileysWill]

thats one meaning , not always tho

[iobuffa]

adjective

Known widely and unfavorably: common, infamous. See knowledge/ignorance.

Widely known and discussed: famed, famous, leading, popular, well-known. See knowledge/ignorance. :)

Only time this worked is with Air Jordans

[Skazzious]

The same kind of thing happened with the iPhone locally. We don't have an apple store so you had to get one from the local O2... I preordered with O2 and they sold the only 16GB 3g they had as I didn't turn up for opening and demand was high... Apparently they only had 1 16 and about 5 8s. I had to travel nearlly 70 miles to get the model of phone I wanted... Thankfully Apple had huge stocks at their retail stores. were they only selling through the network I would have probably never gotten 1

@zomgomgomgz im black and i fucked your mon and she loved it

[allmacallmike]

This camera angle is pretty good Bwana! Also, I agree with you a 100% on the palm pre having a "fake shortage"

[RyanChristianson]

bwana i agree 10000000% about the wii shortage situation, more and more companys are slowing down their production after they hype it up to boost higher prices and demand

I was too lazy to get up a@7am and stand in line on Satuday for the Pre, So when I showed up at the sprint store at 11am they were sold out. I got on the waiting list and expected not to hear from them for 5-7 days. They called me Monday morning 9am told me my phone was ready to be picked up! So although I agree they should have had more at launch. It seems they have primed the pump for shipping the device quickly to the stores.

Palm is here to stay like it or not. Palm has a pipeline of more products to hit the shelves. Other phone carriers really want and will get the Palm Pre starting early next year. Pre is being compared to a 3rd generation product, the Iphone 3G, and is getting rave reviews. I dont see Palm being crushed at all and believe seeing Palm taking a huge chunk of Apples and Blackberrys smart phone market share.

[kyleman1313]

I see no future in the palm pre. its probably going to be one of those so called "iPhone killers" that people just forget about a week or two after release.

[devo229]

Palm was probably being conservative give the economy and wanted to test the waters before they manufactured millions of units..

you hit the nail on the head

with so many iphone D riders out there, making to many palm phones is suicide

[blazinraffy]

Best buy always receives high end phones with only 2-3 units available the first couple days or weeks of launch. Sprint had about 40-70 units at launch. The week it was launched, 100,000 units were sold. Theirs waiting lists for this phone and yes there is limited availability which is creating buzz . That being said, the product itself is creating even more buzz because of many internet reviews giving the phone a thumbs up and saying its on par or surpasses the iphone in almost every aspect.

[007AMG1]

Totally agree

[markbyrn]

I don't play along with the marketing games of manufacturers, including Apple. When I got the iPhone, it was well after the shortage frenzy; if Palm is trying the same game, they're fools since they don't have the Army of fanboys that Apple counts on to make the first splash. Palm was probably being conservative give the economy and wanted to test the waters before they manufactured millions of units. The Pre firmware might edge out the Iphone, but it's not going to stop the iphone juggernaut

[tylerrer]

OMG thank you so much!!!!

i have been trying to get this phone for a week they are sold out everywhere. im going to go to another phone if i can't find one soon

[ZacharyDuhamel]

i dont think that the wii was held back.

[flossysband]

does anyone know the name of the song used in the intro

[SlinkyStudio]

I don't think we are going to see a Palm phone next year!

[samuelkeshon]

I Agree

[Renaissance000]

[xxsosteezexx]
