Comments on: Final Palm Pre Retail Packaging and Box Contents Spotted

Palm Pre Retail BoxMaxPDA, a Chinese-language mobile site, has uncovered several high-quality shots of the Pre's finalized retail packaging for Sprint, as well as some of the box contents, with additional details being subsequently reported by PreCentral. The final Pre box is essentially shaped identically to the clever "wedge" design first used on the Treo Pro last year. While we spotted a mockup Pre box at CES, the package design and box contents for Sprint had not yet been finalized.

Some additional pieces of info gleaned from these spy shots are that the device's SKU is PALM100HK and the fact that it has passed all FCC testing and certification. One image shows an affixed sticker listing a "2009-05-04 11:00". This is presumably a production lot decal indicating that this Pre rolled off the line on either April 5th or May 4th.

... all of this turns out to be one grand conspiracy and the Pre is actually never released? What then?!! Wow, I'm sitting here on the edge of my seat, shaking with fear, uncertainty and doubt. WHAT IF?

Hey Palm! Where's my PDA with Wifi and phone capabilities?

I wonder why yet nobody's posted "WTF, no hearing aid level T? Sorry Palm, that's a deal breaker... I loved you for so many years, now you'll go down."

Perhaps an article on the shipping box for a device that itself remains vaporware is insufficent reason to comment?

I don't think I ever had anything that worked with the T-coil. I normally just take out the hearing aid and put it in my pocket and just listen with my bare ears. But that only works for phones/headphones since they are so close to the canal.

Does the iPhone work with it?
