My Local stores have only sold a few devices. They still have many in stock around where I live.

Let me know how the coverage with Sprint is in your area, compared to VZW.

Palm Pre sales so far this mornign are very low. sprint stores around cleveland ohio where I live still have a bunch in stock

i have a few in stock right now but the drop ship orders for them have gone by super quick. i think that most people would rather defer the phone to their bill. in less than a half hour i watched the available drop ship phones drop over 1000 phones. given thats nation wide though. im not sure that the gen public was totally aware that the stores opened at 8 tho.

i only had 2 customers here from 8-10....not like that was worth opening that early. but o well.

n e ways hows the pre treating any of you that have purchased em so far? is it what you thought it would be? whats good and bad...lets get some early reviews goin

the stores im associated with are ranked
66th in the nation for indirect retailers so we were allocated more than most stores.
we had two out (spoken for by customers in store) right when i opened the door

Very good device. I'm surprised... in the store, it sucked. Of course I like to waste $$$ and bought it even though I didn't like it much in the store and realized the store had it set to keep bringing up the demo. Good device... just needs an expandable memory slot of more internal memory. You start off with 7.2GBs.

Give it a while and let us know what you think. It would nice to get an unbiased opinion from a Storm user without an axe to grind.

That said, I ain't holding my breath in anticipation...

I got mine this morning. I got to the the store at 7:30 and was 9th in line.

I like it so far. I have a few complaints but it's pretty good for a 1.0 phone.

I got mine this morning. I must say, I was involved with the craziness that surrounde the Storm when it was released. The Sprint store nearest me in the Bay Area of California ran the launch of the Pre extremely well. They did sell out of their stock their. I was number 42, and I would have to say when I was leaving there was probably still a dozen people in line as well as seven (that's how many sales people/windows they had going), and some of those were getting more then one Pre.

I am loving it so far. I have had a Treo on Sprint since the Treo 300 years ago.
