We’ve heard February. We’ve heard June. Now we’re hearing that the Palm Pre might launch on or around March 15th. This latest rumor comes from a BGR Ninja who leaked details of a Sprint EOL (End Of Life) document. Its really an inexact science, but the fact that the Palm Pre shows a target in-stock of 3/15 and set to replace the Palm 755P by Late May boads well for Palm Pre fans.

In addition to stressing the inexactness of the science we would also like to point out the incaseness of the rumor being wrong or the EOL list being phony. That can happen… it is, in fact, a rumor. With each passing day February looks less and less likely and a June launch would be downright depressing so we’re hoping March 15th is accurate and perhaps we’ll get confirmation at MWC.

For giggles, here is the entire Sprint EOL list taken from the original BGR scoop.

    EjcfcI Good point. I hadn’t thought about it quite that way. :)
