Sprint Nextel will launch the Palm Pre in the first week of June, according to a report in the New York Times. The launch date has been the subject of intense speculation on the Internet and for those following Sprint and Palm.
The Times wasn’t more specific, but said the information came from people briefed with Sprint and Palm’s plans. Palm and Sprint have said all along that the device will be available by the end of the first half. June 30 would be the last possible day the two companies could launch the device to make that self-imposed deadline. Speculation has mounted that the launch may come on June 7, the day before Apple’s WWDC conference, where the company may unveil the latest version of the iPhone.
