The always enterprising folks at The Boy Genius Report have revealed an internal Sprint document that places the Palm Pre launch at March 15, and reveals quite a few shipping dates of other 2009 Sprint handsets. If you look at the list below, the EOL (end of life) dates sometimes come after the shipping dates of new handsets. This just means that the corresponding new device will replace the EOL device once its inventory is sold out. Take a look!
