Palm Pre Breaks Sales Records

Sprint Nextel executives said Monday that the launch of the much anticipated Palm Pre on Saturday hit a new sales record for the company. Neither Sprint nor Palm is discussing specific sales figures, but Tim Donahue, vice president of business marketing for Sprint, said that the launch exceeded the company's expectations.

Re: Palm Pre Breaks Sales Records

well they *could* have sold ALOT more, maybe 3X, if they had stock... but production probs prevented that... which is a shame, cuz it would have approached iPhone launch levels...

COULD have sold a LOOOOOOT more if they allowed SERO customers to upgrade to it. Oh well, still waiting for a phone with a big screen and a 3.5mm jack that allows me to tether and watch slingbox (preferably through TV Out) for $30/month... is this too much to ask for? The Pre would have been good enough to wait for HTC to release this dream phone of mine, guess I'll settle for my diamond.

Yeah it is when what you are asking for a surefire money loser for the company.

They have to hate SERO. We get a great deal and on top of that many of us use the phone for the internet on top of it.

I love my plan and would not change it but I can see very clearly why they prohibit some devices from using it.

Yep... I went looking for one on the first day, with possible intent to buy. All the stores anywhere near me had zero in stock... not sold out... they received zero.
