Verizon xv6800 is now $50 for new customers, $150 existing thru bestbuy!

I just got a xv6800 thru Verizon direct, for the $250, 2 year contract price. I had a feeling it would drop when the touch pro came out, or even before to clear the way...

Well I just saw this. Best Buy is offering the xv6800 for $50 if your a NEW customer, and for $150 if your an existing customer, with 2 year extension. That's $100 cheaper then Verizon has it for existing customers, and $200 cheaper if your a new customer! That's huge!

I was p***** at the price drop but I'm within 30 days, so I called them and they had me fax them the ad here:

Here is the price for a CURRENT customer with 2 year extension ($149.99)

And here is the price for a NEW customer ($49.99)
http://wireless.bestbuy.com/DeviceDe...6&CarrierID=60

And they're going to rebate me $100 (somehow, may come off my bill, not sure yet) - rather then having to return the phone and rebuy it (what a pain that would be)!

I'll let you know when that goes thru and how they do it, but heads up Verizon customers Remember to say thanks
