UK carriers say 'thanks but no thanks' to the Palm Pre 2

Although the Palm Pre 2 -- the first device to sport WebOS 2.0 -- is
set to go on sale in the United Kingdom sans SIM for £399
(that's roughly $645) on November 12th, it looks like a lot of the
major carriers will not be carrying the device. Pocket-lint personally
contacted Orange, Vodafone, Three and O2 (a company which carried the
Pre, Pre Plus, Pixi and Pixi Plus) and all had essentially the same
thing to say: there are no plans to carry the device at this time.
This isn't great news for Palm lovers across the way, and it's
certainly not making anyone at the newly merged HP / Palm happy. Of
course, none of the statements save O2's are definitive, so we'll keep
our eyes peeled for any changes. We can always hope.
