We get a little more generous plans over here. But you all do get a better deal overall.

Example:

T-Mobile
$40 300 anytime minutes, unlimited calls from 9pm to 7am, unlimited calls Sat/Sunday, unlimited calls to any 5 numbers of our choice.
$20 unlimited BIS data, tethering.
$10 1000 SMS/MMS

T-Mobile
$40 600 anytime minutes, free calls to all T-Mobile customers, unlimited use Sat/Sunday, 500 SMS.
$20 unlimited BIS data, tethering.

On top of that, it is very easy to get a 10% monthly discount with T-Mobile.

And the Blackberry 8900 will be $200 up front, with a 24 month contract.

Is that with TMo USA and if so how do you get 10% off per month.

[Christi23]

Uh........I kept reading. Nevermind.

[glasgowwaterboy]

I am paying �20 a month with 02 on an 18 month contract
I got the phone free and am getting:
600 mins
1000 texts
Unlimited data

I got this because I was upgrading and went through to 'retentions'
I told them I was not ahppy having to go on to an 18 mont contract
She sweetened the deal by offering me the tariff above

Normally the above would be �35 a month

My only gripe is that I have now discovered that I don't have BES so cannot get my work email on the blackberry

[dan2001]

on upgrade from orange I got

free 8900 phone
500m
200 txt
unlimited landline
blackberry unlimited Free
first 2 months bill free

all for �25 per month on 18mnth contract

forget speaking to upgrades-ask for pac code dept and they will ask you to stay. go from there. dan london UK

I pay about $58/month and get the following:
400 Daytime minutes, evening & weekends starting at 6
Rogers to Rogers calling
10000 Texts, 10000 Picture Messages and 500 MB of data
Voicemail, caller id.

Don't want to pay more than $250 for it, so looks like I'll be keeping my 8320 for a few more months until the price goes down a bit. Maybe I can find a good deal on eBay? I bought my Curve in May '08 so I'm not due for an upgrade yet
I'm sad because I really want the 8900. I love the improvements!

good luck on that price guy

I got mine from Negri Electronics as soon as they dropped... was six hundred an some U.S.


...then they dropped prices on them

ah well, I love my jav.

Just checked Tmobile's site and it looks like I'll be paying $200 plus resigning for an additional 2 years. I don't have a problem with that because I like the plan I have with tmobile.

You get tethering, we don't. When I rang O2 they advised against it due to the high cost and their fair usage policy! I would only be using it once a month for about 2-3 hours if that. I'm going for a PAYG mobile broadband now.

You guys et good plans and all but wow, I could never live on 500 min and 200 txts

[Casper TFG]

(London, UK, o2 network)

Free upgrade from my 8300 (2 months early because I begged and claimed to be a "high volume user')

Same plan. Agreed to another 18 months..Probably should have haggled.. But was so desperate to get the new handset...

Can't wait for it to arrive in the mail!!! I hope I don't get an intermittent track ball (took 3 tries to get a good 8300 last time)

Fingers crossed!

I paid $430 stretched out over 3 months so I only pay a fraction of the price of the phone for 3months. Thank u Tmobile for payment plans on smartphones!

[javmad86]

Free on �35 p/m with cash backs equating to �24 p/m. 600txts, 500mins, unlimited data.

[hershey72]

The Walmart site says FREE with a new 2 year contract and a $250 Let's Talk discount...I put one in my cart but when I got to the plan screen it only let me choose either email/data or voice minutes. So I just ordered an email plan and went to checkout to see what happened. Sure 'nuf it showed $0, zero!!! I'm still skeptical. I'll be watching to see if somebody goes and gets one.

[fisherclive]

Just paid $429 after $70 credit from tmobile. $310 + tax and shipping will be on 1st bill the remaining $120 will be split up over 3 months. Oh well at least I'm getting it.

I was due for a "full upgrade", so I paid $349 + taxes + $19.99 for expedited shipping. I will also have a $100 mail-in rebate. This is for a 1-year contract resign...I figure in a year, there will be some other hot new Blackberry that I will want!

[tranquil.forest]

525 shipped unlocked from SN Traders. No logos either.

I ordered from SN Traders also. They have unlocked Rogers branded 8900s. The Rogers logo is displayed in the splash screen when you restart the phone and also in the camera assembly on the back of the phone.

Looks like it's the price for all of us buying from T-Mo with the 2 year extension and $70 discount. $330.30 up front then 90 something in 1/3 installments over the next 3 months. $372.94 after taxes and express delivery. Basically 71 dollars off full price to extend to 2 years - no big deal since I already had a year and a half to do. They would have billed, but I went ahead and paid now to just get it over with. It will be a long weekend!

[clutchplaya]

got mine from the walmart website this morning and got it for free with a new 2 year agreement

[KaLiBLeeK]

I ended up paying $549.99 + $25.00 shipping through Overseas Electronics...

It's the T-Mo Germany version w/the QWERTZ keyboard, but I'm pretty stoked about it. Just arrived today via UPS. I think I'm a bigger fan of the darker battery door; from the pictures I've seen of the T-Mo U.S. version, it looks like that one has a lighter-colored battery door.

[VertigoX]

Did a 1-yr contract extension with T-Mobile US. Upfront (before the $100 MIR), I paid $349 for the phone, $30 NY state sales tax and $20 for expedited shipping. Came out to $400, so $300 after rebates.

[crackcorn]

i ordered it up today, and it was gonna be $499 but with the $70 discount i got, it was $425. Cant wait for it to arrive 1st time BB user, so hope experience it pleasant!

[truelysmoove]

Just put in my order about a half hour ago. Partial discount so my came up to 433 + tax= around 460ish. Also got the extended payment plan with free shipping. Expecting some time next week

[berry-luv]

$100 bucks!!!!!!!!! yay!! it'll be hear mon or tues

[chocknyc123]

Will they offer you the 1 year extension in person on Feb 11th, or can you only get it thru calling a CSR?
