 A little expensive
hoodoo @ 12/6/2006 4:08:58 PM #

$299 CAD = about $260 USD. I see it can be had for only $199 USD with a two year contract in the US?

Rogers wants $349- $50 rebate plus 3 year voice/email plan at minimum $60 per month. You get 200 anytime minutes and count 'em, 7 (seven) whole MB of data. Add $6.95 system acces fee, $0.50 911 fee, 14% tax = $76.89. Add voice mail, caller ID, text messages sent for $12 more, then you're up to over $90 per month x 36 months = $3240 for barebones service. Yikes!

At least they dropped the price of the 650 to $199, even though you can get it at Bell And Telus for $49

A little? LOL It is a ripoff. That's ONE of the reasons I will not buy a Treo.

Bell is almost just as bad.
They can shove their voice and data plans up their *censored*.
