i personally would not, since id be paying for it myself and not my moms money...id even reconsider it if it was $399...that is alot of money damn

if it is that expensive i guess id go for verizons 2nd best phone, the audiovox 9900

who agrees?

@499.99 I'd have to do some serious comparing of this one to the 810, 9900, 670, 7000, and 6100. I'm expecting to see $349.99 w/2yr... and @that price, i'm getting it.

Well since we're having the big discussion on phone pricing, i'm pretty sure most of you are already locked into those contract. I am also pretty sure you're not within the 1 yr of the 2 yr contract yet, well most of us. If that scenario fits your case then I hate to say but unless you can get a hookup, bitch about your current phone to a manager, "loose it", or something else then you'll be paying retail for the phone.

The difference in that is which retail you'll be paying. Retail pricing from Motorola directly versus that from Verizon when you waltz into the store is typically different. I don't think anyone wants to go into Verizon and say they'll pay retail for this phone, it wouldn't be the wisest thing to do. When the phone does co...

Anything in the $300 - $499 range is strictly retail. Note how I did not say $299 - $499 but $300 - $499, $299 can still be considered a contract price for a 1 yr but not likely. if you're looking forward to getting it for the least amount of money then you're looking at signing the 2 yr and maybe with a rebate you won't be coming out the pocket with much money. The best camera phone verizon has is the a610, as far as the camera goes but b...

😕 I'm only 4 months into my 2 year contract...the full retail price of the phone will determine if I'll get it or not so hopefully it won't be crazy expensive or I'll be stuck with the phone I have now...

I think $499 would be a VERY high price for this phone. The most expensive Verizon phone in my market with a 2 yr contract and rebates figured in is $149. Only the smart phones and blackberrys are priced at the $499 level. Let's hope for a price point somewhere in the middle with a 2 yr contract and hopefully a rebate.

$499 is a NO CONTRACT PRICE not a contract price. I don't think people here are grasping the concept, this thread was started with the concept of RETAIL PRICING in mind, of course if you sign a 2 yr contract you'll get it for $229 or so and a 1yr for about $299 but we were discussing pure retail pricing and the differences in the price that Motorola sells their phones for ...
