Palm Pre hits US Amazon

Palm’s Pre initially could only be purchased via Sprint’s stores. Best Buy then added the critter, and it’s now Amazon’s turn:

Even though the contract price of 199$ seems to be the same as with Sprint’s, the critter can be bought without a service plan for just 500$. Unfortunately, this won’t do much for you – the device still has a CDMA radio and seems to be locked to Sprint…

P.S. I have tried to search for the product on both Amazon Austria and Amazon US, and did not get any useful results. They probably didn’t update their search indexes yet…
