Paul Ghent, Palm’s vice president of European sales, has told the publication Total Telecom that the Palm Pre Plus and Pixi Plus would debut on SFR France by the end of the month. Specifically the handsets will first become available online on April 27th, while SFR retail locations will have them by May 11th.
The Pixi Plus will carry a 49 up front price tag, while the Pre Plus will cost 149, or 99 including 50 mail-in rebate.
