) j/ S0 }; Z2 z% j. DRetail giant Best Buy has not only long been America's #1 electronics chain but has traditionally been a strong supporter of Palm's products, especially in recent years. A new report out today from Bloomberg reports that the retailer is in talks with Sprint Nextel to "potentially put the device in more than 1,000 stores."

Best Buy Mobile unit President Shawn Score said the parties aren't ready yet to announce an agreement about the Palm Pre, which works exclusively with Sprint service in the U.S. He declined to comment on whether Best Buy would be the sole retailer for the Pre.

# \0 {, n/ x, {- x' ?$ z1 i$ IBest Buy's support of Palm is nothing new, as the retail chain has long prominently featured Palm handhelds and smartphones in their weekly sales flyers. In addition, as of this writing, Best Buy remains one of the only brick and mortar retail chains still offering Palm handhelds or accessories in any capacity, as seen in my retail report earlier this month.

寂夜清风

Best Buy一直以来曾经是PALM产品的重要销售渠道之一.

(具体原因并没有人公开说明,但是应该是出于对PALM产品的销售成绩的考量和PALM前景的不乐观.)

所以这回才会有BEST BUY讨论卖PRE的问题.

在BEST BUY里卖手机是很正常的事情.即使是SPRINT这种机器(V版的也一样),根本用不着专门讨论的,但是因为他们对PALM产品的态度有过这样一次转折.所以这次重新卖PRE也成了新闻
