Rumor: The Boy Genius Report has posted a rumor from one of their “solid connects” that T-Mobile is in the “final stages of planning out their WebOS device launch with Palm”. The report is very light on details but it suggests that a “Pixi-like handset” is in the works. No word at this time if this will be a GSM version of the original Pixi as seen on Sprint or the improved Pre Plus with Wi-Fi currently available on Verizon. Of course, the term “Pixi-like” could suggest a different model entirely, as rumors have been swirling for some time about a 3rd potential WebOS handset. It’s possible that T-Mobile could end up with the same mysterious C40 device spotted in Sprint’s inventory system last year.
With a version of both the Pre and Pixi possibly heading to AT&T at some point within the next few months, Palm could achieve the major coup of wrapping up all four major domestic carriers with the addition of T-Mobile, a position the company has never held.
