I think you are right about the settling of prices, too. This is like so many other consumer electronics - the first ones are 1K, and the early adopters pay the tax. Then the basic devices eventually settle at about $99 a few years later. (i.e. - microwaves, VCRs, DVD players, bookshelf stereos, etc., etc.)</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wayne, you were the inspiration for this post; you are always finding such great deals! <img

I&#039;m not sure if there were any in stock (and I think it would be a better idea for anyone with decent coverage to consider Sprint for their $99/unlimited which includes BIS and unlimited SMS/MMS (when avail) ).
I haven&#039;t seen a Blackberry 8830 for under $250 to $300. I think there may also be a $100 carrier rebate though I&#039;m not sure if that rebate would apply to a Walmart purchase - so ymmv.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>PS &#8211; I saw a Blackberry 8830 on Verizon at my Rocky Hill CT Walmart for about $190 &#8212; with 2 year contract.

I do not think there&#039;s enough usable feature difference to justify the wide price variations between low/high end models.
I bet that these settle down to a commodity like $125 to $150 within a year.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow &#8211; this is a HOT deal &#8212; I definitely would look at something like this versus any of the more expensive ones.
