Best Buy Sells Palm Pre for $99, With a 2 Year Contract? Oh no, They Didn’t!

Best Buy must be starting to feel the heat, not of its competition, but the genuine heat of the July sun, since they’ve just made a little error, by pricing Palm Pre at $99, with a 2 year contract. The price is back to $199 and one could only have dreamt about that reduction for a few hours.

This price drop would have made the Pre once again a worthy iPhone 3G competitor and would have probably answered AT&T’s move (the carrier is offering refurbished 8GB iPhones for $49).

We’re looking forward to the time when this offer becomes real and not a mere mistake of the retailer, giving us hope in times of… depression. Did anyone get to purchase the cheap Pre while it was “cheap”.
