Palm Pre confirmed for Verizon? Probably.

We were already pretty sure that reports that Verizon was passing on the Palm Pre were unwarranted, but the rumors just keep coming. Now BGR is reporting that it's confirmed -- albeit through an unnamed source -- that the carrier will in fact land the device. It's all starting to seem like a non-starter of a story at this point, considering we sort of already knew Palm's device was probably going to Verizon, but at least now we're less unsure that it's not not on its way, right? Right.

i waited so long for this announcement but now i'm not even really excited. it's a great phone, don't get me wrong, but it's locked down just like the iPhone (another great phone). i'm going to stick with what i know and get the Touch Pro2 with WinMo. i can do pretty much watever i want on that OS.

I certainly hope it's true that the Pre will make it to Verizon....but I do think it brings up a broader problem of carriers vs app stores. http://bit.ly/2ZS5AE

I bet Dan Hesse, Sprint CEO, started all the rumors.
