iSuppli: Palm Pre components cost $170
Market research firm iSuppli is out with their analysis of the Palm Pre Smartphone.
Palm Pre is not yet launched… but the researchers calculated the costs based on second-quarter component and assembly pricing.
iSuppli researchers said that they believe this phone would be offered for USD 300 to Sprint Nextel.
Customers are likely to pay just around USD 200 after adding carrier subsidies.
This would make it an attractive offer compared to the Apple iPhone.
iSuppli analyst Tina Teng had this to say on Palm Pre: “The similarity in features between the Pre and the iPhone clearly reveals the mark Palm is trying to hit. The use of a multi-touch screen — a key allure of the iPhone — and Palm’s innovative WebOS operating system, are likely to allow the Pre to appeal to a broad range of consumers.”
