As we reported earlier this week, we now have it almost 100% that Vodafone will be carrying the Palm Pre in the UK. After several days of contacting Vodafone and receiving stock “We are not aware of any plans to range this device in the UK.” emails, I finally got through to someone who acknowledged the carriers plans to, well, carry the device. The short email I received back:

Hi Ryan,

With regrets, I can not currently share any information regarding the Palm Pre handset; we are still in early negotiation with Palm, but nothing is solid. I can double check next week but as of this point in time that is all I know.

Aditionally, as one of our readers pointed out, an administrator on the Vodafone UK forum also hinted at the possibility of the device coming to the network:

Hey thatfenderstratguy,

That phone does look awesome, we were taking a look at this in the office the other day a few of us have our eye on it, I would keep your eyes peeled on the coming soon section here at our online shop.

Thanks
