you know a phone has heat when people would rather drive through a store window than wait for the store to open… If you’ve been chained up in a basement for the past few months and haven’t heard, Sprint and Palm just launched one of the most highly anticipated handsets of the year — the Palm Pre.

“The best way I can put it is when you’re watching a movie and you see a car go through a display, it’s everything’s in slow motion. You didn’t look, you just see glass shattered everywhere,” Leal said.
The store, at 12842 S. Ashland Ave., is getting ready to release the new Palm Pre on Saturday. They said they'll clean up and hope to be able to reopen by 8 a.m.
