Today Palm announced that AT&T will be offering both the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus at some time in the coming months. The phones will be identical to the versions currently being sold by Verizon Wireless, save for the substitution of quad-band GSM/EDGE and dual-band 850/1900 3.6Mbps HSDPA radios. All other aspects to the hardware are identical. Palm said the differences in the software will include integration with AT&T's online contacts application with Palm's Synergy contacts application. Current AT&T customers will be able to port their online contacts to either phone seamlessly. The devices will have other branded AT&T apps, such as AT&T Navigation, as well. The Pre Plus will cost $150 after mail-in rebate, and the Pixi Plus will be $50 after mail-in rebate. The Pre Plus will come in the same black that is already being offered by Sprint and Verizon. The Pixi, however, will also come in blue. Both will be compatible with Palm's Touchstone charger.

Good For Palm

This is good. Phones shouldn't be exclusive to one carrier anyway. More competition means better phones and better plans.

Will these be coming to T-Mobile?
It's just a matter of time before someone unlocks the palm pre and puts it on t-mobile. Which will be nice cause my brother has the pre on sprint with a sero plan.

Thanks for announcing something we already know, Palm!

This announcement is just to get some activity on their plummeting stock.
Yea Palm is hurting and this phone wasn't the savoir so they are dumping it on a carriers to sell more units!
Maybe you knew, but I didn't. Now I have something to think about. I'm coming up to the point where I can upgrade out of my iPhone and was planning on going back to a blackberry. But, I love the Palm Pre- and I'm pretty excited by this news.
