It seems that we have evidence to support the rumor that Palm is gearing up to launch their webOS touting Eos sometime next month. According to TechCrunch, Palm will unveil the phone sometime next week in leiu of Fashion Week.

This would somewhat make sense since the Eos is said to feature a low price and sleek design. Either way, we won’t know if this phone even exists (although we do have some proof) until Palm makes an official announcement. We’ll keep you posted.

It looks like Sprint is getting ready to launch not one, but two new Palm smartphones running webOS. According to Sprint’s inventory system, the Palm 120 and C40 are on their way but we have no idea what these new phones look like or what features we should expect from them. The 120 is supposed to be the Eos which we’re already expecting but the C40 is still a mystery. We’ll have to wait for some unhappy employee from Sprint or Palm to clear the air for us and leak the first shots of these new Palm smartphones. And just in case you’re wondering, Verizon will probably get these new Palms too at some point in the near future, so you won’t have to switch to Sprint to get your new Palm 120 or C40.

Those on Verizon anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Palm Pre may not have much longer to wait. What you see above is a leaked screenshot taken of Verizon’s inventory database. As you can see, the item description displays PALM P101 SMTPHNE, could this possibly be the Palm Pre? It would make sense considering Sprint’s Palm Pre codename is the P100.

Additionally, screenshots were also found display phones such as the PALM 121 (Eos?), BlackBerry Storm 2, HTC TouchPro2 and Samsung Omnia II.

Remember that Palm Eos phone we were talking about way before the Pre actually arrived in Sprint stores? Well it looks like a GSM/HSPA version of it is scheduled for an October release. It seems that AT&T is the carrier that will launch the phone and Compal will send anywhere from 400,000 to 500,000 Eos phones to the USA. In case you’re still a CDMA/EV-DO kind of person then you should expect Verizon or Sprint to launch the Eos sometime next year.

What do you think folks, will the Eos be even more successful than the Pre? We have no official features to work with so far but at least we know that Palm has opened submissions for the App Catalog. By October we can expect lots of applications to be available in the App Catalog which means future Eos owners will have a lot more apps ready to be downloaded than the first Pre buyers did. What about you? Are you going to get a Palm Eos phone later this year?

The next webOS phone from Palm should be the Eos “Pixie“. I say only should be since according to some rumors Palm might cancel this phone. The Pre is a hot phone so the Pixie should be at least as hot, right? Well it looks like Palm has different ideas. Although not official it looks like:

Palm has decided to put the Pixie on hold until they have better visibility into how its current models are selling in the market.

Will we have to wait to sell the Pre in a few million copies before we see a follow up phone? I certainly hope not. Or is there something wrong with the Pre or the webOS?

The thing with rumors and hidden sources is that you can never know exactly who’s telling the truth. Yesterday we heard that the Palm Eos will be released by AT&T. Today we hear the Sprint will have it too in the third quarter of the year. Sources within Sprint have confirmed such a device and the said handset is in testing as we speak. Maybe by tomorrow T-Mobile will also have a version of the Eos scheduled for release this fall. will the Pre arrive from any other carriers? We’ll keep you updated!

And on a different not the Eos could very well wear one of the following names: Mini Pre, Pixie or Castle.

This thing here is supposed to be a phone. A concept phone that folds and is equipped with OLED technology. The EOS from Kyocera will offer you a portrait QWERTY mode or a full-on widescreen OLED display. Basically there’s a solution for all your needs so you’ll be able to enjoy the way you communicate with your friends and family. Other features of the EOS will include memory keys that morph flat when they’re not being used and a recharging method based on kinetic energy from piezoelectric generators. When will we see one out on the market? Kyocera will be looking to introduce some of these technologies in the near future.

The Japanese manufacturer, Kyocera, has come up with a futuristic phone that changes shape from a clamshell to a wallet or clutch-purse. Nicknamed the “EOS,” the concept folding phone incorporates a flexible OLED display surrounded by a soft and semi-rigid polymer casing.

Housed in a neat, compact design, the concept phone offers great adaptability, thanks in part to the flexible screen that unfolds to reveal the widescreen display. Furthermore, the EOS doesn’t need any battery, because the phone translates kinetic energy into an electric charge via an range of nano-scale piezoelectric generators when it physically interacts with the user. When not in use this sleek design can hide the keyboard.
