    Sounds like she was high on the texts, $10 for 1000 and then the
    @ home was $10 a month, the 4 places I called did have them in, just couldn't process until tomorrow, so I might stop and play with one on my way home..

    If you're considering changing to TMO for the 8220, I bought my pearl from Wirefly.com. There is a Blackberry Minutes and Mail plan, the one I have, listed towads the bottom of the choices. I don't know if it is availble via T-MO stores and online...

    Prices are subjective. Not everyone talks on the phone that often or texts that much. 1000 texts a month? I text a lot and I would say I do maybe 50 a week....maybe that's not a lot to some folks...

    Now, I can't wait to go to TMO tomorrow morning

    I was thinking about keeping vzw and getting a flipstart and just forwarding my # to check out tmo, I had them many moons ago and left more because of customer service than anything else, was thinking about trying them again...
    As for wirefly, I gotta have it in hand, not a patient wait er...

    So me being as bored as I am at work, I just tried calling the 3 T-Mobile stores closest to me. As posted earlier, they said the release would be on monday. Well, I called the same store again just now, and the representitive said sometime this month. So I called a second store. They said they had no idea when it was coming out. They hadnt heard anything about it, only about the G1. So I tried calling a third store. THEY said they had them in stock, but no word on pricing or when it should be released. Im ready to storm the back rooms and take one for myself, thanks to all of this inconsistency. Anyone with me?

    Me too! When I visited the store they actually went back and got one and tried to ring it up...the only problem seemed to be that their system didn't have pricing, and they wrote my name on the box, so I know they are there.

    I know where I can get a pitchfork, but as for a torch, all I could find were tiki lamps.

    On one of the earlier threads about the 8220, someone mentioned that the screen quality was disappointing. Have any of you heard any other opinions like this? Also, did the Mesa location mention the cost? I saw an earlier post with pricing but didn't know if it was confirmed.
    They didn't have pricing info at the Mesa store when I was there. I asked.
    But I'm pretty confident the word on the street is right -- $150/2 years or $200/1 year.
