Palm Pre Launch Lacks Wow Factor and CustomersThe Palm Pre mobile smartphone went on sale today for the first time across the nation at Sprint Stores, Best Buy, and RadioShack. The one thing missing from the launch? Campers. The Palm Pre launch lacked people camping and waiting early in lines to be one of the first to snag a Palm Pre, even after the company announced shortages.With the lack of early birds, it looks like the launch is off to a not as expected start. With Apple's first generation iPhone there were huge lines and camping in front of Apple stores and even so with the iPhone 3G. We've seen no sign of such for the Palm Pre launch. Maybe it's because the Palm Pre doesn't bring anything new and extraordinary to the table over the iPhone or perhaps its the lack of advertising on Palm and Sprint's part?
