We thought about running a harmless little April Fool's Day prank on the blog today. Maybe leak a hint about a hush-hush rumor that Palm would be merging with that pomegranate juice company (the new company would have the ticker symbol POM-PALM, with a cheerleader as our corporate mascot, natch). Heck, there's already a video (created as a promotional tool for Nova Scotia -- go figure) showing off the first phone the combined companies would produce.
Maybe we'd disclose some bogus guidelines for naming webOS apps (“application names are encouraged to use only the vowels 'e' and 'o'; also acceptable are 'a' and 'u,' and sometimes 'y'”). Or issue a faux “Countdown Survival Guide” for everyone anxiously awaiting the availability of the Pre.
But instead, we thought we'd give you a heads-up (for reals) to check back later today (or follow palm_inc on Twitter) for an update direct from the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco.

I almost never buy the latest and the greatest...can't afford it. But someday, when it is on GSM, I will buy the palm pre.
