HTC Thunderbolt Shows $749.99 Off-Contract Price in Best Buy

LMAO... Best Buy can go jump off a cliff. Then again they always price their phones super high.

 

The US is slowly turning into Europe. Soon the gas prices will be that way too. Most other countries pay $5-8 per gallon of gasoline and $700-1000 for a cell phone off contract. Unless things change, and soon, we're going to be there. It's an unfortunate reality.

 

I cant see whole article at work, but I have a question...

Even if I dont live near a 4g/ NFL city will i still have to pay more than my usual $29 data plan??.. I really want this when my upgrades come up but im not gonna dish out for 4g if it wont be here till 2013....

 

I dont think Verizon has confirmed whether or not they're going to charge extra for LTE on their phones yet.

 

so i guess that means the etf is around $315?

200 phone + 35 activation - 750 off contract= 315

 

Some wholesale vendor charge $750 for new device months before released to public. But far as BB goes they can F themselves I mean who buy phone from them? As they make money of contract with higher etf + cost of device. Its cheaper to just buy it direct subsidize as I always do then again I am pro GSM only if TB wasn't CDMA it would have been my HD2 replacement which I paid 750 got the Leo1024 4months before TMo dropped it.
