Rumor: Sprint to lower the Palm Pre pricing to $150

Assuming we can believe the latest rumor surrounding the Palm Pre, then it looks like you may be able to pick one up for $150 in just a few days. According to an anonymous tipster over at PreCentral, beginning September 8 the price of the Palm Pre will be lowered to $149.99 (after a mail-in-rebate).

These does come with a catch though — it looks like that newly lowered price will be effective at the Sprint “indirect partner” locations and will only be available until October 31. Additionally, this appears to mean that you will have to be a new customer which comes with a two-year agreement.

All things considered, this does sound like a logical offer, especially since Sprint is going to be adding the HTC Hero which is priced nicely at $179.99.
