More word from an apparent Sprint rep brought to us via insidesprintnow, is that the Data Transfer Assistant will be offered to Palm Pre customers who are looking to transfer data over from their existing device to their newly acquired Palm Pre handset.

Palm did confirm they would be offering this option back at CES and it appears they are keeping their promise for of the Data transfer Assistant which is pitched as a migration assistant but doesn’t have sync capabilities which means it will transfer data to the Pre but not to a computer.

Once the data is on your Palm Pre customers will then be encouraged to utilise a service which is compatible with Synergy.
