Re: Crazy prices closer to launch date

I don't understand why everyone thinks it is idiotic. $400 - $1000 is not a lot of money. If you are in contract it would have been at least $450+tax, assuming $450 is the retail price. In my area that is almost $500 after tax. When the Treo650 launched I paid over $650 for the phone new from Sprint after taxes. I am sure I am not the only one who has done this. Business devices entice business users. Business users have jobs and some of us actually rely on our phones to make us money. I don't know what any of the rest of you guys do, but if something makes me more money or my life easier, I will spend the coin to get it. Nothing crazy about the prices in my opinion.
