Let's Get The Palm Pre Party Started Tonight!
Tony Peric
Sprint Premier Members should consider yourself very lucky and you had better check your email, because you’ve probably received one of these invites picture above above. What you are looking at is an invitation to a Palm Pre launch party tonight. Sorry non-Sprint customers, you will be turned away! There are approximately ten locations around the country where this Palm Pre launch part will take place. So gas up that car and don’t forget to bring your invite to get your Pre Party groove on tonight.
As a Sprint Premier customer, you are exclusively invited to the hottest wireless launch party. Mingle with celebs and enjoy hors d'oeuvres, wine, and music while taking the Palm Pre for a spin on America’s most dependable 3G network. Plus, you will be able to purchase the Pre at the event before it hits the street.

I was told after this l-o-n-g wait for the palm pre, there will be limited amounts in Sprint stores and they will be sold, first come, first served!
I called 3 stores and went to 2 stores and was approached with rude comments, 'well the store will be opened at 8:00 a.m., you better be in line early! We have no idea how many we are going to receive, good luck trying to find one, You can go to another phone company, I don't care!' Being a Premier Customer, I am totally shocked to be hearing such a thing.
I have spoken with 5 frien's today and al of them are switching from Sprint to other companies. I feel this palm pre launch was handled terribly and I may be the next one to move on!
Any idea what cities these events are taking place? I am a premier customer, but I didn't get an invitation. So I'm wondering if there's even a launch party here.
I'm a Premier customer, but Miami isn't one of the ten cities. :-/ Ah well, my friendly Sprint Store reps are opening at 8am, so I'll just have to wait an extra 12 hours.
Carlos, I spoke with my rep today, and was told "I can't give you an exact number for security purposes, but I can tell you we have a lot of them. A. Lot."
I know now everyone has the same experiences, but at my store they have always been very helpful and friendly.

That's what I get for being too specific. I asked about a Miami launch and was told there weren't any in the county. Rassa-frassin' 55 miles away... mumble mumble...
10+ year Sprint Premier customer but I've been shunned. Not invited.
Oh well, it sure would have been nice to bring a shiny new Pre to WWDC next week.
