Verizon Doesn't Want the Palm Pre Anymore Palm's first webOS phone, the Pre, has been quite popular and although not able to become the serious iPhone competitor Palm wanted it to be, it still brought in lots of cash for both Sprint and Palm.

The Pre is currently a Sprint exclusive and it looks like it will remain a Sprint exclusive even more if Verizon won't start selling it next January. The word on the street is that Verizon will get a few Pres but it won't invest in heavily marketing the phone. Apparently Verizon is not too happy with Pre's performance so far and Palm's App Catalog which would't fit very well with Verizon's VCast service.
