they wont be $200 cause they really arent that feature rich.

They wont be free cause that would be crazy.

They should fall between 49.99 and 149.99

Does anybody know if these Kin's will be treated as smartphones or just a data phone where just a regular data plan will do? I hope it wont be treated like a smartphone man we have enough of those. It would be nice for something like these to be a dumbphone. Thanks.

They won't be a dumbphone. Their entire OS is set for Cloud syncing.

Wow its shocking that it will be treated as a smartphone. It appears very cheap in appearance. I was hoping it would be a dumbphone. As a smartphone these phones will flop.

they look like something in-between a feature phone and a smartphone...but knowing verizon, they'll probably make them come with the $30 data tacked on.

They are smart phones, they are running a modified version of windows. They are designed for constant internet connections, so unlimited data will be required.

They will probably sell poorly and be discounted down to free within a few months of launch. They are made to target a small target group and I really dont see them doing that great. They are targeting the social networking adicts, people that have to be checking their facebook and twitter 24hrs a day.. I would like to see if the phones' cameras live up to what they claim.
