Sprint stores opening early on June 6th, closing early day before to prepare

Clearly, this is going to be a big launch for Sprint. This is their iPhone, their Storm. And so, they’re pulling out all the stops, including the one that holds back the special hours. Heck, they’re even launching on a Saturday instead of the typical Sunday. As noted by Boy Genius Report, Sprint stores nationwide will be closing at 4 PM on Friday, June 5th to set up the store for the Palm Pre launch the next day. They’ll reopen on Saturday, June 6th at 8 AM, all prepped and ready to take your money and give you a Pre. With this kind of preparation, clearly Sprint is expecting the launch to be a very big thing - so it's good that they're taking a page out of Apple's playbook from the iPhone launch.

Thanks to everyone that sent this in!
