EVO 3D cousin Sensation to sell for 199. E3D similar?

I just came across the link below for the Sensation. It will be selling for 199 on contract at Target. I don't see how the E3D will sell for much more than that. Thoughts?

T-Mobile HTC Sensation 4G to run $199 at Target | Android Central

I think the comments from the guy working at Target claiming this was fake was interesting.

But could be.

Overpriced, considering that $200 max is the right price for the 3dEvo. Intro prices do tend to be higher, tho.

i would think $199... but who knows.... i'll pay $499 if they hurry the hell up. :)

Ha, I want them to hurry too, but not so that I can get fleeced for 5 bills...lol (assuming you're talking on contract).

I know that across carriers it doesn't really matter if T-Mob decides on a $199 price point for the Sensation, but it does worry me a little that Sprint will try to jack up the 3D a to something like $250, when it seems relatively well established that $199 is the typical high end smartphone price on contract.

I've two lines of thought here. One, From what's been published about 3D and Sensation, the two are similar enough to be at the very least, fairly close in price. Secondly, Sprint has been down the 250 road before with EPIC but I now wonder if they regret it, since it's down to 150 now. So, my guess is that this beastie will run 200-250, and as long as its right and out soon, its something I can live with.

I doubt it, since they are already getting 10/mo more, so they can lure us by offering a decent price...if they sold it at $100 a ton of people would jump on it, even after having to pay an extra 10/mo...too bad they don't realize that
