Hi HELIX

We don't have any confirmation of release date, or for that matter whether we'll be carrying it for this handset as yet.

Should anything change, the best bet is to keep an eye on our Coming Soon page in the online store.

You seem very keen to know when the Pre 3 will be available. May i ask why? It's not exactly a ground breaking handset, It's integration with the touchpad is about the best thing going for it.

Hi Nabs,

The WebOS, in my opinion is the best smartphone OS out there! 

Please do some research, and if you get a chance have a play with a WebOS device.

I use to change my phone every 6 months or so, but have had my current phone, i.e Palm Pre running WebOS for 18 months now , so thats in itself is saying something..

PS- Moderators: Vodafone can you confirm my above questions??

Dear Vodafone,

The Pre 3 has now been officially released today by HP and a number of other retailers including HP EU are shipping. I understand Orange are shipping also!!.. I am just out of contract and want this phone so bad.. Please can you tell me when you will be releasing the HP Pre 3?.. otherwise I don't think I can hold out and my have to jump to one of your competitors.

Looking forward to your earliest reply.

Cheers

Hi James,

I just can believe that!.. The phone is now released in the UK, so either Vodafone are or are not going to carry it.. I understand that you might not be able to confirm an actual date, but surely you know whether you are going to carry it?

Please check your internal product release list and report back 

Thanks

Helix

PS - I really don't want to take my business to Orange, but the wall of silence may leave me with now choice!

So it is confirmed then, that UK Vodafone are not offering the Pre 3.. This is a real shame

Any reason behind this?

Cheers

Hi HELIX.

Thanks for your post, it is great to see you again!

I understand it can be frustrating not being able to get something in particular.

Vodafone do look at all the latest handsets and select the ones we are going to stock with the customers best interest in mind, we look at what trends are in the market, what unique selling point a device has and listen to what the research from the market gives us.

Vodafone also put the devices through a lot of testing to ensure the device is suitable for its intended purpose and that it will stand the test of time and the wear and tear of an agreement.

We do have our Coming Soon section on our website that you may wish to check out, you can subscribe to this so if any updates become available for new products and services you would be among the first to know.

If you would like one of our sales team to discuss an upgrade to one of our existing range please do not hesitate to post!

Many Thanks
