Do you guys think $460 USD for a new one is a good deal for it? Thanks!
I can tell you that mine with a contract from T-Mobile was $396 taxes and shipping. I simply renewed with a new 2 year contract to get that price. Still not happy with the cost, but it was still cheaper than getting one with a German QWERTZ keyboard ( since I live in Germany and have T-Mobile in the US, too).
Oh... Hmmm, well, I'm getting it from T-mobile too, except without a contract. I think without contract should make up for it, no? Since I'm on prepaid.
wow, that much WITH a 2 year contract? i got mine for free with an 18 month one

If it´s unlocked and with no contract price is ok I think.
If you have the link where I can get it one for that price please post it here!
Sorry no link. I'm using craigslist.
Not a bad deal at all. I paid $540 shipped overnight for mine unlocked. Wasn't brand new but it basically was. Hardly used, 10/10 condition, box and all accessories. I wish I couldve paid just $460 haha ... hell, if you don't like it, you can always resell it for $100+ more than what you paid.

Do a quick search of the forum. I just ordered mine today for $149 ... No activation, free shipping...
Paying more than $150 isn't a good deal...
I´m sure prices will drop waiting all this fever of getting it first!
So if there is no rush for having it, waiting always is better.
Damm, I can´t wait to have one

many people here not realizing how lucky they are with the subsidized price from operators... *although by partially selling your soul to them on contract *
i can confirm shadixs experience cuz I paid around that much too. but in our cases, it's price after tax and includes after-sales warranty. we can buy through ebay, or imports, but no after-sales...
you paid 655, is it included warranty... sir?
peid 600
paid 600 Euros without a contract.
Everz single Euro was worth it !!!!

O2 UK were offering the Uni free (and may still be) on contracts where you were paying for 500 (or so) free minutes a month

Paid only £150 with O2 contract for 18 months for £35. Now the contract is finished. O2 do not lock their phones over here in UK, and I am using it with Three sim (unlimited data). AWSOME.
I will never sell mine ... nothing on the market beats it.
Hi All,
Finally gonna leave my hermes for a new machine.
What quotes have you guys been finding online or at shops for the Rhodium?
Online, I saw a US site pre ordering at $749.99 and a UK site preorder at £517.95
http://www.inkino.co.uk/zen/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=2753
Also http://www.expansys.com/ is quoting the t-diamond 2 for £411, so maybe its going to be just below £500?
hopefully the recession will help htc to price it lower
no one wanna play guesstimate?
ok att version $500 when it comes out and then $300 with several discounts and contract ****. wait wait $499.99 and $299.99 us loves to think that makes it less LOL

I have been searching and from a UK perspective mobile phones direct have the Pro2 and Diamond2 listed for pre-order.
Their picture of the phone has a free label in the corner.
Judging from what I have seen I am hoping the pricing will be very similar to the HD. If it is then I am going to be as happy as a pig in s***. As soon as the Pro2 is released i'm having one (it also ties in quite nicely to when my contract is up also )

High-end phones seem to be more expensive at the moment with the N97 on Play at a SIM free price of £600.
$299 for Rhodium
$199 for Diamond2
After rebates with 2year contract
When it comes to Sprint in Q3 of this year!
Since the Fuze for ATT was around $350 on release im guessing about the same for the Fuze 2 or TP2 w.e you wanna say lol

Where did u find this info?
I have had my HD for about 2 months and will sell it right now and keep my old Kaiser until this phone comes out. Maybe get it from the UK in May when it is due to drop over there.
I think price will be similar to HD when was launched (Hope is less!!)
Price, well it's bad thing. More than 500 euro, less than 750 euro e.g 600-650 euro unlocked, without contract, nobrand....
I read your post quick, the 500 and 300 but then wait wait 499.99 and 299.99 I dunno what it is but it seems..cheaper, its a mental thing or something...LOL..after looking at it I was like its a 1cent difference but mentally that 299.99 seems cheaper than 300, man they have programmed us stores do it too alot of crap is 19.99 never $20

I gues it will be free in Holland with a 2 year 40 euro a month contract by T-Mobile and will come down to a 30/35 euro a month contract in a few months.
It is already showing at expansys.co.uk for £524 estimated to be in on the 5th of june

I'm plannin on gettin it with Vodafone.
1 year contract. 27.50 a month + Data-plan = 37.50 a month, and the first 6 months 20% discount so that would be:
First 6 months 32 euro a month, and last 6 six months 37.50 a month.
And then I need to pay something like 295 euro for the TP2

UPDATE
i ordered mine friday night at 6 PM, and it was at my door saturday at 9 AM
i charged it, and messed around with it a bit, but my service hasn't started yet. will post again when i can give it a full test drive!
walmart.com got this deal too.
Is this legit, if so I am taking mine back today and just ordering from here.
Has anyone received it from this store yet?
wirefly.com has the same deal. I am getting mine today.
and what tmob plans do you have to buy? phone & data prices? 2 year contract?
So, we can´t just buy the phone without any contract like in Europe?
That really sucks...

We can't, but we have one massive advantage over Europe. Actual plan costs. We have one of lowest price-per-minute ratios in the world. Japan is another that has similar costs to the US. So, while phones here are more expensive, voice and data plans are cheaper.
$200 a piece from Wirefly, got one for me and one for my wifey Due to arrive on Monday and I can't wait for that big beautiful screen! Looking forward to using NRG's rom on the TP2 as his were the only I like for my Fuze.
Looks like it is now up to $229 with a 2-year extension

Really? You want to go with that? Canada, the US, and Spain are THE most expensive countries for cell phone usage.
Check this out:
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/08/12/us-canada-and-spain-win-the-battle-for-most-expensive-cellph/
According to that post the US equivalent of an $11 dollar plan in the Netherlands will run around $53 in the US (don't know which carrier but yeah).
Yes, you CAN buy a TMo TP2 without a contract (though still locked), for somewhere between $500 and $550. Alternatively, the unlocked US Edge-only Euro version ran about $720 (minus VAT) when it first debuted.

I saw that headline before, but what I'm curious about is whether they compared apples and oranges--for example, did they compare subsidies? Someday I'll actually read the source material and see. Not today though.
They don't take into account subsidies.
My point was that gehzumteufel said that the US had among the lowest plan costs. Which according to that is just not true.
Subsidies do soften the blow, but only if you're buying a new cell. If you're the type to keep the same cell for years (maybe you're an environmentalist, maybe you just like the model) the plan prices just seem expensive as they're the same price whether you get a new cell or not.
Personally as I'm on pay as you go/prepaid, I always pay full price, so the plan prices are important.
And yeah, the US has the TP2 for less than the European price. I am actually considering getting the US version, but then I'd have to find a way to unlock it...

But I am not interested in buy any plan, I already have mine with Telcel and it´s really good, I just need the device @ a reasonable price, nothing else
Bought for $542+ $50 tax from T-Mobile....still worth it.....
This is the full buy out price.....dont think you have to be a customer to buy it from them.....but the phone will be locked though.....you will hav to find other means to unlock it....

If you bought it from the US where would you plan on unlocking it? I am thinking of getting it from Tmo as well to use on Movistar, but I don't have any idea where I'd unlock it.

Those price include the VAT (VAT are kindda taxes and they only apply for European countries) judging from your flag, you're not in Europe, so if you happen to order, the VAT value will be deducted from the over-all price you mentioned

anyways whats the best price match i can do in whatever store with the lowest price, been searching online etc and only see walmart being the lowest, 249,
but does price match can be used with an online price or i have to bring a catalog with me never done this before?
please help i got a budget for 250 for my christmas gift and this is it , lol
play with one and its sick as phone and verizon speeds aaround here is fasssttt...
cant do the amazon price or letstalk its to backorder lol.
I bought mine at Best Buy, they did price match Radio Shack's $239 online price. The only reason I bought at Best Buy was I had $100 gift card.
I got mine at verizonwireless.com for 250, but i think although I did an early upgrade i still got a instant discount of 50.00.
Does Amazon still have the $150 for new accounts?
Cause that's where you should go.
Got mine from fry's electronics for $150. I had them price match amazon.

you lucked out there. normally if a BB manager is around they'll say "we only match stores prices. not online"...
if that ever happens you just say 'thank you' and either go to another BB or try again when said manager isn't around.
