After news that Best Buy would be offering the $100 rebate that brings the Palm Pre down to its $199 price point as an instant rebate, many people were planning on grabbing the device from Best Buy. Current leaked information, however, indicates that those instant rebates may be hard to come by, since Best Buy may only be receiving four Palm Pres for each retail location.
