So with the info that stores are getting their stock now. My wife called into Sprint Premier Upgrade to see if she could reserve a Pre for launch day. They told her no that they wouldn't get their stock till the 7th. That they get it one day after launch. But what I found interesting is that they offered her the HTC Touch Pro for the price of the Pre. So instead of it being $399 - $100 mail in rebate they were going to sell it to her for $299 - $100 mir if she bought it today. I firgured she mean Treo Pro and I said to her no the Treo Pro is always available at that price. She said no she said Touch Pro with the slide out keyboard.
So if anyone out there was waiting for the Touch Pros price to drop use that method. Also it shows that Sprint Telesales isn't trying to route people to the Instinct S30 as the alternative to Pres when they sell out. They are pointing them at the Touch Pro. But I guess we already saw that internal document saying refer IT Professionals to the Treo Pro... Happy hunting.
