Radio Shack (RSH) is phasing out sales of� both the Palm (PALM) Pixi and Pre in favor of two newer devices, a spokesman for Sprint (S) confirms. Update: At least one of the replacement devices will be a Research In Motion (RIMM) BlackBerry.
“This is in line with Radio Shack’s normal product planning process – there is a designated amount of space in stores for handsets and they work to keep the line up of devices as current as possible,” Sprint spokesman Scott Sloat said via -email.
Obvious question is WHICH two newer devices will take the place of the Pre and the Pixi; will update if/when I get the answer.
PALM today is down 81 cents, or 14.5%, to $4.78.

Update: Sloat reports that “The plan is for the Pre to be replaced by a BlackBerry device and the Pixi for a message-centric device. At this point, that is as detailed as I can be.”
