Earlier this year while we were at CES 2009, mobile phone fanatics around the world were introduced to the Palm Pre (See our post with the specs, screenshots, and video). Over the past few months there have been rumors regarding the release date of the highly anticipated device.
It appears that Palm isn"t going to hold back any longer and is ready to take on Apple and its iPhone. According to a leaked document that Engadget has released, Sprint is currently set to release the device no later or earlier than May 16th.
