It's timing to market was just fine. But two issues killed it, IMO:
1) The SDK took way too long to come out. I was ready to do some dev work on it. But by the time it came out, I had passed on it. SDKs must be ready at device launch, and the app store must ship with the device.
2) The advertising was horrible. The Pre should have been a huge seller with Sprint customers, but many didn't even know about it.
