I saw on Yahoo this morning where AT&T is offering the Torch for $.01 with a new 2 year agreement. Sounds like a heck of a deal for someone that is in the market for a new device or eligible for an upgrade (even if it is a refurb). Sale is over tomorrow. Hopefully, this will get RIM devices in more hands and CrackBerry.com will get some new members! (BTW, I do not work for RIM or AT&T) I was one of the 1,750 managers that Lowe's laid off yesterday. However, at least I still have my Bold 9700 to assist me in search of a new job!
Cheers!

Reason: added "refurbished" to original post.
This model is about 6 months old now. It isn't unusual for devices this old to be deeply discounted.

I think it also that AT&T ordered way more Torches than they thought they would sell. These orders are made months and months before they are delivered and AT&T thought the Torch would be an overwhelming seller!
This did not turn out to be true and many are unhappy they did not opt in on the 9780 which they failed to order any.
