Best Buy to be exclusive Palm Pre retailer?

Palm Pre

WebOSArena.com, the newly launched sister site to Phonearena.com, is reporting that Best Buy Mobile could become the exclusive retailer, aside from Sprint itself, for the Palm Pre during the first 60 days that it is available. The site credits a credible source for the news.

Such an exclusive is not without precedent as Best Buy had a similar exclusive with the Sprint version of the Samsung Instinct last year.

Pricing and specific availability information has not been revealed yet but rumours suggest that the Pre will sell for between US$199 and US$249 with a two-year Sprint contract.
