every t-mobile rep has a blackberry curve, or a majority.... thats gotta tell ya something. i would go for the curve. own it, love it.

on the other hand, the LX is the 233344445% better than the previous models. awesome phone too.

comes down to... is it for business (curve) or strictly personal (LX)?

19.99 gives you unlimited text and web on sidekick.

34.98 for a BB (unlimited text 14.99, unlimited data 19.99)

I forgot what their wireless store's webstie is. All I can rememner is http://www.onetouchdirect.com/ You can just click on the little banner at the top to speak to a live rep (during business hours).

I got 2 Curves... Both were $50/per up front with free bluetooth headsets, and it came with $50/per Tmo mail in rebates. Granted you have to sign up for the BB plan.... but who cares... t saved me 500 bucks!

You can't beat free when everyone one else wants 249.99.

I even paid the extra 44.99 to have it overnighted to me.

Their customer service is AWESOME!

i wouldn't go that rout being that you have to abide by that companies terms and conditions and you have to sign a secondary contract with that specific company...just print out what wal-mat is offering online, free plus the 50 mail in rebate take it into a corporate store and they will price match it for you

i've said this before, i don't know where there is a corporate store that will match deals like that. we had a very brief time just before new years where they let us, but if i did something like that now, my market manager and my store manager would jump up and down on my chest until i was dead. i work in the tampa market, my wife works in the orlando market and i have friends and relatives that work in other markets, and no one that i have asked would price match a deal like that. so, if you do find one, congrats, but until you do, don't get your hopes up. i'd love to do it, i probably lose at least 20 lines a month to these deals, then spend untold hours trying to fix the damage done when the promises that were made dont come thru.

what promises won't come through? It's 50 bucks upfront with a 50 TMOBILE reabte.... not some shady 3rd party rebate.

I even got my headset too.... =)

Wallyworld has the phone for 149.99 with a 50 MIR....and that is online with is operated by Lets Talk.... You can (most of the time) get a corp store to honor their price...but they will match the 149.99...It's not FREE on Wally's website.

If you go into wallyworld the charge 249.99 to order that phone to their store.

So there are your choices....
