There’s a hole in that big box, dear Liza, dear Liza: specifically, at Best Buy. Inventory pages from the retailer for the Palm Pre were supposedly leaked, and the information shows anywhere from two to 20 units that will be available at launch at various locations.
Dan Hesse wasn’t kidding about shortages, apparently, if this is true. And maybe this guy isn’t such a geek after all.
The question remains, with all of the anticipation surrounding this launch, do Sprint-Nextel Corp. and Palm Inc. run the risk of alienating much-needed potential customers by ordering such skimpy amounts of the gadget? Or is it a savvy strategy to make news?
