O2 announced as the Palm Pré Exclusive Network in UK

Telefonica and Palm have confirmed, in a press release, that O2 will be the exclusive network offering the new WebOS-based Palm Pré within the UK. Telefonica, the parent company of O2, will also be the supplier for Spain, Germany and Ireland.

There is no confirmation of a release date or pricing as yet. Just a vague "before the Christmas holidays". Sounds a long way off to me!

It looks quite nice in the videos (or, at least, I think so). Lots of talk of miss-aligned sharp edges, dodgy cameras etc. Mind you, plenty of similar complaints with regards the iPhone 3GS

It looks like a Zest (not the prettiest device in the world) with an ugly 70's calculator cellotaped to the back of it.......
