Price Point

The only thing Im worried about with this phone at the moment is the price. 299.99 seems a little steep to me but considering how many other Droid devices there are on the market. Especially when the phone feels like a Droid X2 with a few more bells and whistles.

The Zumocast feature does look cool but Im not sure if thats worth an extra 100.00 I wouldnt be supprised if VZW changes the price fairly quick after launch.

My thoughts, as well. The Motorola Photon 4G is arguable a very similar phone specs-wise, but for $199 instead of $299. I want to know what exactly is the extra $100 for, Verizon? Anyone?

4G that works without the $10 extra.

So, you want to pay $30 for a smartphone data plan that is capped at 2GB as opposed to paying $10 premium data for unlimited use. Smart.

I guess the argument can be said that the phone has 32 Gbs of memory but memory isnt that much of a concern to me since I still havent filled my old 8gb card.

I played with the phone at lenght today and was impressed. I still have the unlimited data plan for 29.99 and I'll be able to keep it on 4G. I just think its still a little pricey.

I was able to play with the Zumoast and I have to say its the coolest thing ever. I put it into the laptop accessory and I felt like I was using my home PC...it was great!

Maybe the price will drop around the holidays so I can get one!
