I'm sure he appreciates you making his mind up for him, since he'll think exactly the same way you do.

Anyway, there really is a lot of uncertainty. The cell phone industry is a funny thing, and we may yet see the Pre come to Verizon...or perhaps another Palm device in the future.

As for getting it activated on Verizon's network, I'm not sure. That might be something worth looking into over at PreCentral. They're pretty knowledgeable over there, much more Pre-centric, and filled with a lot less cross-platform snarkiness.

It's not really going to hurt Verizon, it's going to hurt Palm.

Yup, thats why you don't rely on rumors from some analyst.

Confirmed: Verizon Wireless will sell the Palm Pre : Boy Genius Report

Vzw has not favored newer phones. There was a write-up about them not getting newer phones due to lack of performance.

Looks like VZW may be getting an updated version of the Pre as well. Can't wait for this device to hit VZW shelves.

Rumor: Verizon may be getting updated Pre
