We know all of you Palm fans out there wait for the Pre to arrive, but if you're just looking for a Palm smartophone, you should know that the company is now offering its GSM Centro for $199 via its official site. It’s a good deal, considering the handset costs $50 cheaper than from other retailers.

We were rather skeptical about the ability of the Palm OS emulator for webOS to run games and videos without problems. Well, now we have almost no doubds it will work just fine. Just look at how games like GTS World Racer run on it (video below).

So if you were planning to get the Palm Pre when it’s officially released, do so without hesitations.

 

For those interested, the unlocked Palm’s Treo Pro is currently available at Amazon for $399.99 with free shipping. If you ask me, it's a great deal, especially since you won't have to deal with carrier contracts.

Buy it here.

Just a short update for the previous news: according to the leaked document supposedly from Sprint, it seems that the Palm Pre smart phone will be ready by May 16th, which is almost the same date I mentioned earlier today.

It looks like the release of device is just around the corner, and at the same time is pretty far.

Phonenews has apparently got some clues on the possible release dates of the upcoming Palm Pre. According to the source, Sprint has reportedly sent out internal memos to its staff, putting a vacation freeze for both May and June. The release dates are set to May 17th or June 29th, depending on the arrival of Palm Pre shipment. There was no official confirmation on that, so consider this a rumor.

If you're wondering whether you will be able to run PalmOS apps on the Palm Pre handset, the answer will be rather positive. According to rumors, the Pre will be getting a PalmOS emulator, which should do the trick. No one knows whether it will support all the available applications, but it's better than nothing anyway, right?

According to Jim Van, one of the beta testers for Sprint, the release of Palm Pre is apparently scheduled for April 30th, and it should be available for $299 with 2-years service agreement. Note that this is not confirmed yet.

How nice! Sprint’s roadmap for the Q1-Q3 of 2009 has leaked today online. Although we cannot confirm nor deny the authenticity of this listing, it's very pleasing for your eyes. The Palm Pre in Q2, the Blackberry Niagara in Q3, plus several Samsung and HTC devices that will be released in the coming months - Sprint, we love you!

After months of pointless waiting Sprint subscribers can finally get the newly released Palm Treo Pro. It is available now for $199 on contract, just don't confuse it with the Palm Pre.
