Contract free?

Are these the actual prices for the phone, contract-free, unsubsidized?

Fair price for increased space

I'm not all that interested in this phone myself, but it's nice to see an equipment manufacturer not raping the consumer for increased storage space.

Apple -- and, yes, other equipment makers as well -- charging a $100 or more for every jump from 16gb to 32gb to 64gb is nothing short of highway robbery. This isn't the 1980's; the technology charges doesn't justify the increased price. Motorola making it a nominal $20 more for more space is a consumer friendly decision though...

Well, if Motorola is making good decisions, maybe it is the 1980's again...

I have

two phones sitting on the desk in front of me, and another in a box in my room. And I still want this.

I think I have a problem.
