The Palm Pixi, which was announced during the beginning of September, but without information regarding pricing or availability, is now a little closer to Sprint customers grubby little hands. Quick recall of the specification sheet:
- 2.63-inch multi-touch screen, 18-bit color, 320×400 resolution
- GPS
- 2 megapixel fixed focus camera
- 3.5 mm headphone jack
- Bluetooth 2.1
- 8 GB of storage built in
- Qualcomm MSM7627 chipset
- 55 mm x 111 mm x 10.85 mm; 99.5 grams
It’s coming to Sprint on November 15th for, and I’m going to quote this so I get it right: “It will cost just $99.99 with a two-year service agreement, after a $50 instant rebate and $100 mail-in rebate”. Why can’t they just let you have it for $99.99 out the door is beyond me. The cheapest plan that will get you this device will cost you $69.99/month; Sprint will not give you this thing without unlimited data.
