Sprint explains the Pre to us with a 22 page doc
It seems Sprint has published a 22 page, which tells in detail about the Pre. The document is business oriented but once fleshed out it reveals the “things to know” about the device. It’s a very helpful guide and each user can benefit from the details that it explains. A very resourceful guide. Engadget sums it up for us. Click on Read to learn more about the Pre.

- Sprint expects the Pre to “make many IT managers’ standards list,” meaning corporate users could potentially choose it in place of a BlackBerry or WinMo device.
- Despite the fact that the Pre uses a standard micro-USB port for charging, the document warns that “other charging solutions may not work properly.” First-party vehicle and travel chargers will be available at or near launch for $31.99 and $34.99, respectively. We certainly wouldn’t be surprised if any micro-USB charger worked, but we don’t think we’d want to be the first one to test it.
- Also available at launch will be a clear plastic holster for $24.99, a leather pouch for $39.99, and of course, the Touchstone for $69.99. “Phone covers” are expected shortly after launch for $29.99 each, but we’re not sure exactly what those are.
- Individual plans include 450 minutes for $69.99, 900 for $89.99, and Simply Everything unlimited for $99.99. All three include unlimited data.
- Employees will have “delayed” availability to ensure that regular customer demand is filled first (this is a pretty common practice with carriers and big boxes, much to the chagrin of said employees).
- SERO plans are not compatible with the Pre.
- Sprint pits the Pre against the iPhone 3G, Storm, and G1 in a comparison chart, noting that you’d be paying $149.99, $158.98, and $124.99, respectively, for equivalent plans.
- Sprint says that the “sealed form factor” of the Pre makes repairs tough and the potential for damage high; therefore, it’s an exchange-only phone. No repairs will be attempted on damaged or defective phones.
- A total of ten flagship stores will be hosting invite-only VIP launch events on June 5.
- DataViz Documents To Go won’t just be available at launch, it’ll actually be built into ROM so that Office documents can be viewed right from the start. An edit-capable version will be available later, though it’s not clear when.
- The creation of a Palm Profile is required to use the phone — there’s no way around it. This is a one-time process that can be completed on the phone itself.
- Users don’t need to accept Google’s terms of service to use the phone, and if they choose not to, GPS services will not be available.
- You can sync to multiple Exchange accounts at once.
- Remote wipe (“kill pill”) capability will be available at launch; users simply need to log into their Palm Profile web page to initiate the wipe. Doesn’t change the fact that your phone was stolen, though, you poor thing.
