The price is actually $299 after rebate
This phone is nice, but it’s not cheap. I paid $399 plus tax and will receive a rebate “Visa” card that can’t be used like a regular card. Was told the card should arrive within two months. Rebate not applicable unless I purchased a qualifying BB plan.
I really like this new phone. I cant wait till the verizon one comes out. Did anyone see it? It is soo cool It competes directly with the Iphone!
