(These guys are excited that they might soon be able to buy the Sprint Touch Pro 2 without declaring bankruptcy.)
Good news, everyone! According to some dude on the internet who heard it from another dude — and a bunch of people who have already managed to get the deal — the Sprint Touch Pro 2 is going to see a huge price drop as early as tomorrow. How huge? Like 44% huge. They’ll be dropping it from the wallet-crushing price tag of $350 down to the much-more-reasonable (and now standard amongst smartphones) $199.
One thing worth noting here is that this essentially price matches Sprint’s Touch Pro 2 to Verizon’s, which was previously the cheapest by far. That leaves just AT&T and T-Mobile up at the higher price – so as it stands, a GSM Touch Pro 2 will set you back nearly twice what a CDMA model will.
Update: Maybe not.
Windows 6.1…they should give it away.
Ugh. You couldn’t pay me to take it.
I’ll wait for HTC Leo
Dangit. And I just made up my mind that I was going to get the Hero based on price. Now I can’t decide again… >.>
Well that sounds like an excellent idea. The prices for cellphones are truly outrageous. Competition amongst carriers is the only way to lower prices and improve innovation. Lets just hope that the rumor is true.
