You may have heard the new Palm Pre news by now that emerged during a joint webcast with Sprint yesterday, but if not you didn’t miss much. Still on track for release in the first half of 2009, the Palm Pre will be available with a variety of data plans. All plans are part of Sprint’s ‘Everything’ line. Individuals can grab 450 minutes, 900 minutes, or unlimited minutes for $69.99, $89.99 or $99.99, respectively. Families can choose 1500 or 3000 minutes for $129.99 or $169.99, or go the unlimited route for $189.99. Businesses have a choice between five different plans that pool minutes. The only other two details that emerged were that the Touchstone charger will be sold separately and there will be no voice-only plans. It would have been nice to get a release date, but I’m guessing we’ll hear more at the CTIA tradeshow next month.
