Palm's $70 Touchstone dock, other Pre accessories appear in Best Buy system

Looks familiar eh? If you're a fan of leaks and pre-release innuendo then you're already acquainted with Best Buy's internal inventory system. According to lgmac, forum jockey and self-proclaimed Best Buy employee over at SprintUser, the first Palm Pre accessories have just been entered into the system. The list includes 5 cases (3 acrylic, 1 leather, 1 labeled "Palm Pre case") and the Touchstone charging kit which lists for a whopping $69.99 -- the same price already rumored. Really Palm, $70? We've been inductive charging our SoniCare toothbrush for years already -- the tech just isn't that amazing anymore, magnet or not. You'll note that the "in stock date" is listed as May 10th so with any luck we'll soon be hearing from Mr. BlurryCam with some shots from the warehouse.

Maybe they do. They do have the tech world in an uproar on release date and price. To beat the man, you got to be the man.

you know what engadgetmobile, if apple had released the iPhone with an inductive charger that sold separately, i guarantee you would not have your panties in a bunch if it sold for 70 dollars. you would say something like "$70, thats the price you got to pay for an unprecedented feature on a phone. better start selling those kidneys."
