If a $200 Nokia N75 doesn't get you worked into a lather, perhaps a $100 N75 will. That's what AT&T seems to be hoping anyway, having just reduced the price of its shining beacon of 3G S60 glory down to a single hundie. Also benefitting from the price cuts is the Motorola KRZR K1, falling to the same $100. Hmm, 2.5G dumbphone or 3G smartphone? We know which one we'd choose.

If this is true, can't wait for the Premier pricing to drop also... then I'm in for one!

so is this including the rebates? cause i got my n75 like 3 weeks ago from an att corp store for 99 bucks after rebates. everywhere in LA has had that price for like a month. if it is actually CHEAPER than 100, then i can still return mine in the 30 day grace period and rebuy the phone from another store for cheaper.

Posted by: GearTripper

from what i understand, this $100 price-point should be before any rebates (if any). hopefully, premier will then drop their price too... maybe to $50 or even less. that's what i'm hoping for.

I've had my N75 for a week. No problems so far. Why have people returned them?

Posted by: RogerPodacter

i dont know the reason he was saying about the returns. but i dont think att markets the phone correctly. it is a smartphone, a mini laptop almost. but att sells it as a music phone. so these uninformed people buy the phone without realizing everything it can do with 3rd party apps and whatnot, so they return it because it is larger than a lot of other flips out there. and the menus can be slower, especially with branded version. the battery is bad until its broken in, then its only average at best. i just dont think average people realize the pros vs the cons so they return and go with a moto razr.

Sorry guys, I don't know why they were returned as I wasn't the one that did the returns.

You guys are probably right, the wrong types of customers buy this phone and the reps sell it to the wrong type of people. Unfortunately the type of person that would like this phone most likely wouldn't be getting the phone at a store.

Looks like its sold out and on backorder now, must be popular

Posted by: RogerPodacter

awesome. if they sell well then there's a better chance the US will either A) get more n series phones with the correct frequencies or B) get an n75 and n95 HSDPA phone sometime this century.

When I orderd mine. It was on backorder. Plus at $100 the price is right.

Posted by: jughead

ordered mine first week in july off the net. cost me a $100 with a $100 rebate. excellent phone IMO.

Posted by: ferndogsd

If you get this phone for $99 in premier, can you still mail in and get the $50 rebate available until the end of August? I am asking because the rebate shows on the regular site but on the premier site.
