I'm referring to putty being slow to connect to an SSH server, nothing about the TP being slow to connect to data or data being slow.

I had posted this a few days ago, but never saw any replies to it and can't even find the post now, but I got an e-mail from Amazon listing the top 10 hot gadgets and one of them was the Fuze.

I have a Sprint TP, but just HAD TO go look at what it looked like, etc.

Well, others have posted about the slightly different look and all that, but what got me was the price!

Amazon had it for $175 plus a $25 mail in rebate, bringing it down to $150!!! Yes, with a 2 year agreement. But dayyyum! Almost $100 cheaper than what I got with the Best Buy Rewards discount. Ouch!

A few years ago I got a great deal on Amazon for a T809 from T-mobile. It was free after rebates with a ONE year contract, as opposed to around $100 with a 2 year contract just about everywhere else. I love Amazon!

As far as I know, it's $299 if you buy it directly through AT&T, just like it is through Sprint.

I was surprized that no one commented on this, even though this is basically a CMDA board.

Anyone? Bueller??



I just checked Amazon again and it's $25 higher, but it's still a great deal if you're with AT&T and want to stay.

You'll get more interest from users at XDA developers.

PPCGeeks and XDA are practically sister sites.
PPCG = CDMA
XDA = GSM

But still... I need to stop in to AT&T and play with their Pro. I especially need to see the back cover!

Oh yeah, I realize that, but it's the price that surprized me. I thought people would be up in arms over it - "why do THEY get that great price and not us?" kind of thing. Or just some discussion over the price difference in general for (basically) the same phone. you know how people can be about things like that.

It's all about monthly cost.
The bottom line is, what good is a cheap phone when you end up paying $350-$400 more a year in monthly fees?

Most Sprint CDMA TP owners will take a $100 hit on the phone because they know they'll make it up in like 3 months.
