Motorola Droid A855 (aka Tao/Sholes/Shules/Flash) Pre-Release Thread

[shdowman]

Agreed....$399 outright doesn't seem realistic at all.

[shdowman]

Isn't it supposed to be 199 with a one year upgrade/Plan Price mick?

The post before asked how much OUTRIGHT....meaning full retail...

[Aixelsyd]

Odds are it will be more the $399 retail. If I had to guess at least $450 if not closer to $500 or more

As for contract pricing tho we don't even know $199 is a 2yr contract price. That is just all speculation going around on the web as it hasn't been announced what pricing will be on a 2yr contract.

I'm guessing it'll be around what you'd expect to pay for a Blackberry retail, which would be somewhere in between 450 and 500. But, really, you never know. Motorola has done some pretty crazy pricing in the past.

Ah, so this means the Sholes is getting close to an actual Oct release....

Yes it is. Let's say maybe in 30 days

All these different code names make me dizzy!

I don't get why people are complaining so much about this. No one ever says a word about this exact situation with HTC devices.

[xbernaut]

$5** out right and $199 with ne2.

They are making me hungry

Exactly but the fact is we know it is coming to VZW for sure, just a matter of when.

Whoa, $199 WITH NE2? Meaning $299 with a 2-year contract? That seems a touch high, no? I was thinking $199 with a 2-year and $99 with NE2...

[Quickster357]

NE2 is usually now $50 off a 2-year price with my experience.

Mine has been ready for quite a while now and every phone on verizonwireless.com with my NE2 is $50 off.

Latitude works great. We could use some screenshot software now. Anybody have any?

For the love of all that is holy, someone get this man some screenshot software!

oh hai. Been lurking this thread for a while, read every single post, obsessively checking for updates. My NE2 is up in october, contract up in Jan. Was eyeing the env touch, or -gasp- considering jumping ship for the iphone then spotted this beauty.

Can't wait to see what unfolds in the coming weeks...
