As expected, the first Palm Pre carrying GSM bands have hit the retail shelves in Germany. Germans can buy the device right now SIM-free for 481 euros or chalk out just a euro to enter into an agreement with O2 for two years with 20 euros as the monthly fee.

Palm also announced the availability for Spain, which is tomorrow, October 14. UK and Ireland will be selling the unit from October 16 with price starting from 96.89 GBP for the phone plus 29.38 GBP every month for 18 months.

To rehash, GSM Palm Pre features a 3.1-inch touchscreen display, 3MP camera with LED flash, GPS, Bluetooth 2.1, Wi-Fi, 8GB internal memory, accelerometer and more.
