Today Sprint and Palm announced that the much anticipated Palm Pre will be available on June 6th for $199.99 after a $100 mail in rebaote with a two year service agreement on an Everything Data Plan or Business Essentials Plan with Messaging and Data.

June 6th is a Saturday and some what of an Odd day to launch a new product but my guess is both Sprint and Palm expect long lines of people wanting to buy the phone they felt a weekend may be best, so that most of them wouldn’t have to miss work. (Just a guess)

“The Palm Pre takes full advantage of Sprint’s Everything Data plans,” said Avi Greengart, research director for Consumer Devices at Current Analysis. “The Pre has been expressly designed for multitasking among multiple web pages and applications. It also builds on Palm’s heritage in PDAs by managing your digital information – whether that’s on a corporate server or on the web.”

With Palm Synergy, users get: 
• Linked contacts – With Synergy, you have a single view that links your contacts from a variety of sources, so accessing them is easier than ever. For example, if you have the same contact listed in your Outlook(3), Google and Facebook accounts, Synergy recognizes that they’re the same person and links the information, presenting it to you as one listing.
• Layered calendars – Your calendars can be seen on their own or layered together in a single view, combining work, family, friends, sports teams, or other interests. You can toggle to look at one calendar at a time, or see them all at a glance.
• Combined messaging – Synergy lets you see all your conversations with the same person in a chat-style view, even if it started in IM and you want to reply with text messaging. You can also see who’s active in a buddy list right from contacts or e-mail, and start a new conversation with just one touch.

When the phone was first announced during this years Consumer Electronics Show many said it would kill the iPhone, while the specs and features it offers rival those of the iPhone only time will tell if the Palm Pre will actually kill it. I personally doubt it but hey ya never know.

I own a Windows mobile and I’m tired of searching for hours all over the web for apps, I’m envious of Apples App store, Palm needs one similar to that.
