Given that Pre isn't a registered trademark, and I suspect they'd have a hard time registering it, I doubt they'd go to great lengths to C&D sites with Pre in the name. You're right...they've been militant about sites with Palm in the name, but less so about device names. We'll see...hopefully, under Rubenstein, there's a new culture less fixated on what the lawyers say (no offense) and more concerned about delivering great products.
