Just yesterday we saw a GSM Palm Pre running on O2 Germany soothing the wounds of anyone who doubted the device’s European presence. Today, the Spanish carrier Telefonica has announced that they will be getting the webOS powered phone on October 14th.

According to Engadget, the device will range in prices of 0-219 depending on what contract. The only way to get the Pre for free is to pay 60 worth of voice in addition to 15 worth of voice.

So again, Palm Pre on Telefonica October 14th, got it?

Ready for some more chocolate guys and gals? Well LG is certainly preparing for more. Although not official yet, the new Chocolate phone is in the works. The Spanish LG blog has revealed some pictures of the new Chocolate today and we definitely like what we see so far. The teaser photos briefly show the new LG while not revealing anything in particular. Exactly as a teaser should work. At least we know that more details are coming our way in August and hopefully next month LG is going to officially unveil its fourth model of the Black Label series.

The GSM Palm Pre is closing in and Europeans will finally be able to purchase it. Spanish carrier Movistar will launch the new Palm phone from the looks of this press photo. Considering that Movistar is owned by Telefonica, and Telefonica signed an exclusivity agreement with Palm, we were expecting it to launch the Pre in Spain, just like O2 will launch it in the UK. Let’s home that the phone will be available sooner rather than later. The press release says that:

Palm Pre is scheduled to be available initially in the UK, Ireland and Germany exclusively on the O2 network, and in Spain exclusively on the Movistar network, in time for the holidays.

What does that “in time for the holidays” mean actually? We’ll be looking forward for some prices and some clear release dates and we’ll get back to you once we get them

The Hero has been approved by the FCC now and the newest HTC Android phone is ready for the U.S. market. The FCC mentions that the Hero comes with 850/1900 MHz 3G support which suggests that AT&T could launch the Hero at some point in the future. A few days ago we heard that Sprint is going to get the Hero but according to the FCC there’s no CDMA support for it. Is HTC going to create a CDMA version of it? In the mean time the phone is already scheduled for two European markets, with Orange UK and Orange Spain preparing to sell it in the UK and Spain. We’ll keep you posted once other carriers decide to commercialize the Hero!

Besides Orange UK it seems that Orange Spain is also going to sell the HTC Hero soon. And we should safely assume that Orange will consider bring the Hero to other markets too. In the mean time the phone will be available to Spanish customers for 99 Euro when purchased with a monthly plan of at least 29 Euro. In case you’re going to pre-order it online, you can get the phone for just 89 Euro. The Hero will be available in Orange stores sometime next week and in case you don’t want a new agreement you’ll be able to get the newest HTC Android phone for somewhere around 500 Euro. What do you think?

Spain is about to disconnect all pre-paid phone lines unless the owners register their personal information with their carriers. This is a result of an European Union directive part of a campaign called “Identify yourself!” The European Union requires owners to register their personal information including name, address and national ID number. The carriers will be required to register all the calls made and keep the information for a year. How would you respond to a move like this one? Sure your privacy is at risk but the campaign is intended to prevent terrorist attacks where cell phones are involved.

Samsung is really into this MWC thing. Not only has the company leaked lots of handsets in the past few weeks but it looks like that it started a massive advertising campaign on location too. Billboards presenting the Ultra Touch, the Omnia HD and the Beat DJ have appeared in Spain. While you’re probably familiar with the Ultra Touch by now, the Omnia HD and Beat DJ might seem like totally new handsets. Only they really aren’t the Omnia HD has been already announced under the name of Acme i8910 while the Beat DJ is actually the M7600. What else has Samsung prepared for us?

The iPhone invasion continues with carriers world over inking agreements with Apple to provide the famous device on their networks. The latest in the ever growing list of dominoes falling is Movistar, a major cell phone provider in Spain. What is not clear though is if they would be offering the first-gen iPhone or the eagerly awaited 3G iPhone.
