It doesn’t appear to do anything groundbreaking like overclock your Pre, but it looks like the webOS 1.4.1 update is now starting to trickle out to at least a few lucky users. According to PreCentral , one of the first reports to come in was from a Pre user who also happened to be one of the first to get the webOS 1.4 update while he was in Vietnam, and has now managed to snag the 1.4.1 update while residing in Holland. That was later followed up with a second report from a Sprint customer in Washington, but things seem to have been relatively quiet since them.

It has been a long wait… A really really long wait for the Brits since the announcement of Palm Pre in January. T3 just published a hint that Palm is planning a UK announcement sometime next week and we just think that this announcement will be nothing less but a confirmation of the UK carrier and a release date for Palm Pre. To add to this, a source at O2 also hinted that Palm Pre is supposed to be ready for the UK launch in July and they are waiting for an email from their head office detailing July release dates, which should contain the date for Palm Pre
Well folks, Palm Pre finally has been spotted on the tube in London, UK. Utku let us know via twitter that he spotted some lucky guy playing with Palm Pre on the tube. There is no way for us to know whether this was a GSM version of the phone or an imported CDMA version, however, if it is the former, we may see Palm Pre on the UK market very soon
After being caught on camera in Vietnam this week, the next sighting pegs the Pre as in London, UK. Twitter user utku spotted what sounds like a field tester using his Pre on the Tube; however when approached the user became highly secretive. “So I went to the guy and said “Ooh, I see you have a Palm Pre.” On which the guy got very secretive and was like “Er, year it’s for work.” and put it away and turned away” utku, Twitter Now, we’ve heard of at least one CDMA Pre being bought in the US, activated via a workaround and used solely as a WiFi device . However if this was such a case, we can’t imagine a reason for the owner to be so cautious with the smartphone; rather, we’d expect them to be pleased to show off their modified toy. This could indicate, then, that a UK carrier (or Palm’s UK arm) are currently testing the GSM version of the smartphone, in advance of the European launch. That’s only been narrowed down to “second half of 2009″, but considering the first in-the-wild shots of the CDMA Pre began to emerge just two months before the official launch, the GSM model may be closer than we expected.
