I thought the UK had basic CDMA (as opposed to the 3G W CDMA) coverage in larger metropolitan areas? Maybe not then… the Pre (as-is) is even more useless then, till a GSM version.

Time to leave Three (3UK), their handsets are terrible compared to o2, T-Mobile, Orange etc.

Don’t get me wrong, of course I’d like a phone that works but it’s frustrating that the PR machine gets going, we get excited and then we have to wait…yes I am impatient…

Assuming you mean CDMA in the way that people mean when they say that the Pre is CDMA (Qualcomm stack) there is no coverage whatsoever in the UK, or indeed just about anywhere outside the US.

Surely, you’d rather have a phone that works? CDMA is pretty shoddy in the UK and GSM is essential to make a success. O2 are therefore waiting for Palm on this one. Hands tied.

CDMA vs GSM. As we have poor CDMA coverage in the UK, it would be foolish to release a CDMA version here.

Yeah it’s disappointing. I know O2 want to push the new iphone as hard as possible before they get distracted but even so, they’ve hardly got any new iphones in stock anyway! It’s no fun waiting for a phone that other people in the world have had for 6 months!

So we’re talking mid-December? Is there any explanation why we’re having to wait another 24+ weeks in the UK? By the time its available they’ll probably have announced a new version!

If Palm want to succeed with this handset/OS, they really need to ramp things up much quicker

Before winter holidays. Seems they want to get it before x-mass. Nice move.

But still waiting for the Pre to appear in Belgium.
