Woo! Palm’s webOS wonder will be available in Canada through Bell for $199.95 on a three-year contract as of tomorrow. The date has been long locked in, the ads are making the rounds, and retails units have even been cracked open a little early. Honestly, I’ve been eager to see the Palm Pre in the wild up north long before Sprint’s launch in June -let’s just hope stock holds up. Clearly Bell is pimping their exclusivity, but I wonder how long it’ll take before we see the Palm Pre on Telus? For more info on Bell’s offer, hit up their product page. You may even be better off ordering online now and having them ship it directly to you, since retail stores will likely run out fairly quick.
