NewsVerizon Eliminates Mail-in-Rebate for Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus
Verizon has eliminated mail-in-rebates for the Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus.
The price for the Pixi is now $79.99 and the Pre Plus is $149.99 with new two-year contracts. There has been much speculation on the current sales performance of the Palm WebOS handsets but according to a report, a Verizon spokeswoman explains that the elimination of the mail-in-rebates is not due to poor sales performance: “There was ‘a brief period where we tested mail-in rebates on some phones. We have found that online customers expect instant rebates and since this is a very competitive arena in which to do business, we responded accordingly.’”

Now if Verizon lowered the monthly charge for unlimited everything to compete with Sprint, so Pre wanters like me can have the phone we want and the service we want.
Don’t limit it to Web OS, include all the phones and all the carriers should follow
