Palm CEO on bringing the Pre to Canada: "we certainly want to"

It's likely not quite the level of specificity that most would-be Canadian users are looking for, but Palm CEO Ed Colligan has at least said something about potential availability of the Palm Pre in the Great White North. Speaking with The Globe & Mail, Colligan first simply stated that, "we do have a UMTS version and a CDMA version," and that "either one of those could come to Canada depending on the carrier" but, when pressed, said that Palm has "of course" been talking to Canadian carriers, and added that "we certainly want to bring the product to Canada." So, there you have it: the Pre is coming to Canada, probably, sometime.
