I'm willing to bet the Pre passed FCC testing ages ago. FCC testing seems to take about a month according to Google. According to Apple Insider the FCC released the iPhone's testing results on May 17th, 43 days before its June 29th release. But the testing seems to have been done in early February.
The FCC has to be hiding some especially juicy details at Palm's request.
I'm hoping the Pre is actually a 4G device, seeing as Sprint advertises its upcoming 4G network alongside the Pre.
“You know what else is free? Syphilis. And like the S60 5th operating system it comes dressed in a beautiful package that drives you mad just as soon as you turn it on.”
