Ditto! I'm the same way. I would love to get it for 329 but I'm FULLY prepared to pay the full 579 IF I have to.

as a third party dealer, we are usually the last to know things like this.
our inter-store news letter is even geared towards "third-party" so I'm sure the corporate news letter had more/better info in it. Hard to tell.
I'm surprised the the PRO is listed first. By all the latest indications I figured the diamond would be listed first.
I don't think it's a typo though as they list the Model and Model Number.
And its reffered as the PRO not raphael or any garbage like that.

Well see.

I'm surprised to hear that there are sooo many people willing to pay almost full price for a phone like this.
I just have a problem with the way technology is priced across the board.
For what it's worth you could get a laptop, and wireless air card for almost the same price. possibly cheaper.
As an IT student I feel as though I have a pretty firm grasp on "some" technology. And mostly Tech. similiar to this phone. And I just don't see it.
I guess if people are willing to pay. But personally I just think it's still over priced.
Doesn't mean I won't be getting it though. Wish it were avail. to employees earlier though.

$549.00 w/o contract, $299.99 with new 2 year when it first came out. Now it's $249.99 with new 2 year.

So I guess that's not terrible.
would have liked for it to a bit cheaper.
Who wouldn't though!?

Reason why I'll pay full price is same reason I paid full price for my HDTV when they 1st came out or xbox 360 or any of my other cool gadgets just to have em cause I wanted em. But with the mogul I use it for my side business so I'm not getting this phone full price cause I want bragging rights or to even more piss off iphone users with more cool features(lol) but cause I need a pda phone for business. I do a lot of traveling so sometimes its easier to whip out the phone n do something real quick and important than booting up an laptop for a 5min task you see what I'm saying. But I guess I'm the if I want it imma have it type of guy too *shrugs*

same here. Can't help but feel a bit goudged though.
On the other hand it is well priced for it's category and based upon other "similiar" phones. So I can't complain too much.
I'm no business owner, but I do a lot and it just so happens that this phone has features that I've really been looking for.
Mostly GPS directions, mail utility, and a huge keyboard.
I'm a texting fiend.
So here's to spending half of one semesters' tuition.

man im a cheap a**

Haha naw you not cheap I'm sure everyone would have loved it been priced 400 outright and 250 with discounts. But like I was saying in another post my mogul keyboard is acting up and I haven't had it for a year. And the sprint store techs around here are "creepy" if you will so don't wanna leave it there and I don't do loner phones. Either fix it on the spot or give me a replacement. I didn't give you the money for the phone in payments I paid all at once so I want the same service lol. And I have insur. On it but I'm not about to spend over 100 to get an replacement only to might have to turn around and send maybe 579 plus tax on a phone I mean I got it. But imma be smart about it ya know. So I'll "tuff" it out til the pro comes out
