Engadget had a source inside Sprint offices to bring us a screenshot that leaks the price for the Touchstone dock. If you don’t know what that is, it works with a special magnetized non-stick battery cover for the Palm Pre to power up the batteries without a plug. Seems like a lot to simply charge a battery, you can also answer a call when you detach the phone from the dock. Ahhh…

According to Palm’s official Twitter account, the Touchstone battery charger and its required back cover will be available as a bundle or separately.

After reading, that the Palm Pre will be exclusive to Sprint when it comes out, I’m a little disappointed that I have to switch carriers. I’m an early adopter and like to be among the first few to own the latest and coolest device. I know I’m not alone. Will you switch to Sprint to get the Palm Pre?
