So the Palm Pre is finally across the pond, in Europe, and many of our European friends want to have the Pre in a different carrier than O2. Well, apparently, now they can, although not in a really elegant way I must say. But hey, who cares, as long as they get it with the carrier of their choice and enjoy our beloved black pebble.

As you can see on the image above, this Pre is working with 3G on T-Mobile’s network. The guy who made this happen goes by the nick ‘phelyer’ on youtube. He used a Rebel Sim Card to do this. Although in this video he clears the network key in his old phone before inserting the SIM into the Palm Pre, he says that is something that doesn’t need to be done.

According to phelyer, he just did that to better illustrate that the Rebel Sim Card can make a fresh connection in the Palm Pre. Of course that if you live in Europe and want a Palm Pre unlocked, you can always do as the Italian guy did back in October; just buy an unlocked Pre with the QWERTZ keyboard from Germany.
