AT&T’s Pre Envy

AT&T (T) is very happy to be the exclusive carrier of the Apple (AAPL) iPhone in the states, but it wouldn’t mind selling the Palm (PALM) Pre too. Asked at the D7 conference today if he might like to add the forthcoming device to AT&T’s handset lineup, AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson said he would, but Palm’s exclusive deal with Sprint (S) prevents that. “Would I like to see the Pre on our network some day? Of course I would,” he said. “Obviously we talk to all the handset manufacturers. We want a broad selection of devices in the lineup. That’s important. Devices right now are what’s driving the customer adoption as much as anything.”
