Quote from tintin_snowy : Amazon just lowered the price to 560$. Still not the same. I don't think they price match.

Really? That's at least promising...I hope they go down to at least $520. IF they do I'll cancel Dell, and order from Amazon instead. I much rather pay $520 at Amazon, than $480 at Dell. It's a new phone, who knows what bugs and stuff it has. Amazon no questions asked return policy is priceless; while Dell's 15% restocking fee on ALL returns is pure crap.

Can't wait for this phone nonetheless, and then signing up for T-mobile's unlimited talk+text+data for only $80/month. Tmob 3G here I come!

Quote from hanabie : so HTC HD2 or this one ? which one is better? and why

HTC HD2 but with Android (currently called Dragon, but it isn't out yet.) Why? Bigger screen but same res, much thinner and runs Android.

Edit: There is a slew of ~800 x 480 Android phones with 600MHz-1GHz processors coming: Sony X10, this Acer: http://www.theunwired.net/?item=p...smartphone the Droid in GSM, HTC Dragon

There is one Maemo phone announced, the N900.

no, the dragon is not out. and it's still only rumored. the most interesting part of the rumor is that it'll have a 1gz processor.

Quote from Mephistus : IN YOUR DREAMS ONLY In case you haven't heard, the Iphone is officially the worst phone with the most problems ever made. It looks nice but looks aren't everything. I want a phone that works all the time not some times. If I am paying $599 for the phone, it better work. Even chrysler's K-car was more reliable. The Iphone 3GS is $599 + tax for the 16Gb no contract. It is $199 with a 2 year Ball and Chain attached to your leg courtesy of AT&T.

LoL...I think you totally missed his point. He was actually making fun of iphone fanboys...

what rumor ?

HTC HD2 is running 1ghz .... slim body.. much better than n900.. but the price is aobut twice as well

Everyone should email Amazon's CS and let them know about Dell's pricing. This would push Amazon to match the Dell price.

Here's my email to Amazon:
Hi, I know Amazon does not pricematch, but most of the time Amazon stays very current with its prices to be very competitive or even lower than its competitors. I would like to let Amazon know that the Nokia N900 is currently priced at $559.99 on Amazon. While Dell.com has the same phone for only $519.99 with a 15% coupon off, so they're selling the phone for only around $450. I had an existing pre-order with Amazon but canceled it to order from Dell instead. It would be unreasonable to ask Amazon to match the coupon pricing of Dell, but if Amazon at least priced this phone more competitively, I would be more than willing to cancel my Dell order, and reorder from Amazon. I am a loyal Amazon customer, but I just can't ignore the huge savings by ordering from Dell instead. Thank you.

Quote from hanabie : so HTC HD2 or this one ? which one is better? and why

Even though I ordered the N900, I'm still looking forward to the HD2.

For me, the expected retooling of Windows Mobile to Windows Mobile 7 and the confirmed integration of the Zune service by Steve Ballmer is a deciding factor.

The built-in wireless router capability is another. Allows devices to connect to the HD2 via Wi-Fi to utilize its internet connection. Hopefully, with the rumored speculation that it's going to T-Mobile USA and the announcement of HSPA+, 21 Mb/s speed next year, that could make that feature a really big plus.

In addition to the other mentioned plusses in the various reviews as well.


Each phone has its benefits. It's up to you to compare and figure out what would most suit you.

I gain a lot of "hands-on" information from watching the many reviews of both phones on YouTube.
