The Wi-Fi Alliance has just certified a Palm Pre with part number P100UNA along with 850/1900 MHz and UMTS/HSPA. The new part number and certification could mean that the Pre is headed to AT&T and/or Rogers once Sprint and Bell’s exclusivity is expired, but there is also a chance that this certification is merely for Bell when they upgrade their service from CDMA to GSM. Keeping a positive attitude and being the glass-is-half-full people that we are, we’re looking at this as a step closer to a GSM Pre for the U.S. and Canada, possibly finding it’s way to AT&T and Rogers someday soon.
