The Palm Pre runs on 2 major US networks. 2. And just about no-where else in the world.
I can go to Optus, Telstra, Vodaphone, Virgin, 3 - and get a subsidised phone (even free upfront). Or I can even go to http://www.apple.com/au/iphone/buy/ http://www.apple.com/au/iphone/buy/ and buy one - and put in whatever random sim card I like.
While googling for this comment I found that palm are looking at releasing a gsm phone soon - that might change things - but for now - the iPhone has a major advantage in carriers - it's called GSM.
