Fry's Electronics to Carry the Palm Pre

This just in via tip from a trusted source, Fry's Electronics will carry the Palm Pre. Although I was told that this would not be on the launch date June 6th, 2009, Fry's Electronics would carry the Palm Pre within a short  time frame after the initial Pre launch. Pricing and rebates are still being determined, but this goes to show that Palm/Sprint are looking to make their moves with large retailers to get the Pre into the hands of new customers. Now we have Best Buy, Radio Shack and Fry's Electronics all in the Pre sell-a-thon.

As reported earlier this would mean Four Major Retailers are going to carry the Palm Pre, whether in limited capacity or stock including Best Buy, Wal-Mart, Radio Shack and Fry's Electronics.

Will Palm Get Its 'Mojo' Back? Developers seeking a viable mobile platform alternative to iPhone and others sign up for dev camps.

preDevCamp is an upcoming not-for-profit gathering to develop applications for Palm Pre using both the Mojo SDK and traditional web standards. The event is currently being planned in over 60 cities around the world. While many observers are skeptical that Palm can make a sizable dent in the mobile market, hundreds of developers are eagerly awaiting the release of the company's new webOS and the Palm Pre mobile device.

These developers have signed up to participate in dev camps that are slated to take place on the first weekend after Palm releases webOS and Pre. These camps are being organized by the developers and are not under Palm's purview, nor Sprint's, the carrier designated to sell the device in the United States, according to the organizers.
