Crazy for the Palm Pre

Palm Pre sales into the channel in June were above 300,000 units with another 70,000 in May , according to Charter Equity Research analyst, Ed Snyder . To put that into perspective, last quarter Palm shipped just 351,000 phones , though the folks in Sunnyvale continue to be silent about any number specifics, sticking to the words of Palm CEO Jon Rubinstein, that “sales have been strong and growing.”. Other numbers Snyder released included: 120,000 – the number of phones in stock due to start-up problems with manufacturing and uncertainty in demand
