The CEO of Verizon, Lowell McAdam, said that his company would get the Palm Pre as well as the Blackberry Storm 2 in about six Months. Around Christmas time or earlier. As you might expect, the news helped push Palm’s stock up. It’s good news for Palm sure, but even better for Verizon customers who are just itching to get some Pre action.

As it stands, Palm has the #2 and #3 US carriers and AT&T has more or less said that it will join in when the Sprint exclusive deal expires. Is the Pre really going to give the iPhone the whatfor?
