Will You Switch to Sprint for a Pre?

palm pre Will You Switch to Sprint for a Pre? When the iPhone first arrived, AT&T saw quite the jump of subscribers since people couldn’t wait to get their hands on the new drool worthy device. The same thing happened again when iPhone 3G arrived on the scene. So, it got me wondering, will people be willing to jump aboard the Sprint train to be one of the first with the Palm Pre? Sprint has been averaging losing over a million subscribers every quarter. They really need to pull in new people. Personally, I am going to wait. First, the exclusive period for the Pre is 6 months. If it debuts around July, I am hoping we see it at Verizon by January 1, 2010. I have been happy with the Verizon network, and since the majority of my family and friends are on Verizon, I save a lot of minutes. As much as I would absolutely LOVE to have a Pre, other than the device itself, there is no incentive. Obviously, Sprint is hoping most people don’t think that’s the case. Plus, Palm admitted that Pre is not going to be the only device with the new WebOS. I knew that was coming. Palm has fallen so far behind in the smartphone market, that they need to be available on all networks. Back to my original question, are you willing to switch to Sprint for a new Palm Pre?
