"They won't say when it'll arrive and they won't say how much it'll cost, but representatives from Palm and Sprint on Thursday were willing to talk about stuff like service plans for the wildly anticipated (though not anytime soon) Palm Pre. It'll be the Everything plans for would-be Pre users: The available individual service plans, according to company officials will be for 400 minutes, 900 minutes, and the $100 all-you-can-eat Simply Everything option. For families, the options are 1500 minutes, 3000 minutes or (again) Simply Everything for $190."

The real news in the webinar is when they said that it comfortably multitasks *4* applications. Let's see, 1) email, 2) IM, 3) web, 4) music, 5) fail. They also said at the webinar that it won't be able to run games other than casual web-based type games, the app store sells mostly games for the iPhone. I was set to like the Pre, and I really want Palm to succeed (I own two Palm devices, a centro and a TX) but I think the Pre is going to disappoint, and there's a reason besides hype that they aren't letting it get examined by just anyone.

I can lease a new small car for $190 month.
Why the hell is a cell phone contract soooo expensive???

It depends on what you're going to use it for. There are alot of NZ'ders who, for example, only have a mobile phone for their home phone rather than a land line. As wireless improves in speed and lower in price you're going to see people tether their mobile to their laptop (rather than it being just a small number of people).
Edit: I hope they allow people to purchase the phone outright; I have a Vodafone prepaid phone and would like be able to purchase this phone.
