O2 Palm Pre exclusivity rumors heating up

Previously, Telefonica was rumored to be the carrier of the Pre in Spain and Latin America, with subsidiary O2 bringing the Pre to the UK. A new report by the Guardian states that O2 has bested competitors Vodafone and Orange, and will be the exclusive provider the Pre in the UK by Christmas. O2 is the UK's largest mobile phone operator, with more than 20 million customers.

O2 did not confirm or deny the rumors, instead stating, "we do not comment on rumor and speculation". If the rumors do pan out however, the new webOS handset will come at a good time for the UK provider. While O2 is the exclusive UK provider of the iPhone, Apple is soon expected to open up the handset to other providers, reports vnunet.

Other providers to carry the Pre include Telstra, rumored to bring the Pre to Australia, and Bell Mobility, who are confirmed to bring the Pre to Canada, possibly as early as August.
