Bell says Palm Pre has “unprecedented demand”
With the Palm Pre now only a mere 7 days away from launching in Canada, proudly the second country in the world to do this. Claire Gillies, director of marketing at Bell Mobility, says “We’ve seen unprecedented demand on our Web site. The list grows every day as we approach launch.”
We’ve noted in the past that the Pre is “the most important launch in Bell’s history“. It could be a possibility that those wanting and patiently waiting for iPhone 3GS stock to arrive might transition over to the Pre? Only time will tell.
Kevin Restivo, senior research analyst at IDC Canada said “Palm needs to be able to satisfy that initial demand to gain market share. Palm is coming to market with the Pre when people are adopting smartphones en masse. It’s a rising tide that lifts all ships.”

I rightfully had stopped believing in that Big Bell liar a very long time ago.

Probably because this is the first good device Bell has launched in a while. Almost every big device that comes out nowadays is GSM which means Rogers get dibs. I can’t even remember the last device that Bell could actually tout with pride, aside from perhaps the BB Storm.

It should be interesting to see if they will be able to keep up with the demand.
you would think after ALL this time they must stock piling a lot of these phones. Especially since we are only the Second country to get it!!
