any date for the 900 on ATT YET?

[gibbyhome]

Has anyone heard a date for the 900 to come to att ?

I heard the 18 along time ago but MS, ATT and Nokia are not talking

I really want to plan my move for the family from Sprint to ATT ..

nothing yet, sorry bud

I'm hearing its going to be delayed at least a couple of weeks,

oh man....that stinks if the 900 is delayed. I was really looking forward to its release....this would have been the first phone i have ever got on day one..(aside from the fact of being at the store at opening time to pick it up..first there too). Hopefully the Microsoft presentation will give more info.

Interesting that the rest of the world is planning to release their version of the 900 45 days after 3/18. So much for exclusives.

Regardless I'm not waiting for at&t to release updates so I'm buying an unlocked un branded 900. I'm not wasting my money on any more phones from at&t unless there is a big reduction in price. I will be paying full price no matter where I get my 900 so mine will be unlocked.

Man... nothing like throwing me under a bus I was hoping..

anybody got any questions on what the unlocked price MIGHT be??? I'm gonna take a guess and say $700.

wow 700 is way to much to be paying for a phone. I thought I saw that in Europe it was going for 450 euro. I guess that would put in in the 500 plus USA range.
I love to see a review on it like from PhoneDog or Cnet, Even more I like to know how the call voice quality going to be like.

I'm just guessing on the $700 price. $500 is probably closer to the actual price but again we're just pulling numbers out of the air right now. Microsoft needs to come on with some info.

Awesome that it's coming to Canada through Rogers in April! But too bad Rogers offer such crappy contracts...dunno if I should just by the phone outright or not...and the 900 doesn't seem to support other networks like the 710 does :dry

i seem to be the only one thats ticked off that we got no price, color or release date for the 900. today was the day to do it and nothing happened. all the windowsphone ppl are patting eachother on their virtual backs today and for what. low end phones and a really nice camera thats not running WP7. i bought my 1st WP full price just so there wouldnt be any problems upgrading. its taken alot to resist the new phones, titan, new focus etc. if i dont get a date soon i think the Note is my next phone, since the awful updating droid is known for is making its way to WP. htc/att and no updates since mango btw..

It's been my experience when selling one of my old phones that unbranded/unlocked GSM phones always sell real fast on eBay for a decent price.

I'll guess $600 on the initial release date, but right after that you'll find a decent price on Amazon, or eBay or NewEgg.

I wouldn't give Cnet's phone crew much weight when it comes to Windows Phone. I just listened to the latest Dialed In. Brian Bennett didn't even know that the next update is going to be called Apollo, and Jessica Dolcourt is equally ignorant.

One of the most balanced reviews of WP I've seen was actually of the 710 over on Mobile Syrup.

Don't expect that price to change very much. No subsidies or anything else. Was looking at the GoPhone plans on AT&T tonight. When my contract is up next month I can switch and save about $33/month. That's $594 in 18 months + the initial $99 (presumably) for the 900 on contract. Think I figured out how to pay for an unlocked phone.

Yea, I'm not a real big fan of Cnet. Their reviews seem kinda biased sometimes and their reviewers don't seem very knowledgeable at times. I like WP reviews and those on phonescoop.

Unfortunatelky whether youre thge only one or one of many thats not getting the 900 here any sooner. Patience is a virtue but its hard to come by!

Jimski, I am curious, do the GoPhone plans offer the same data speeds as post-paid? I have heard that they are throttled.

I was just in an AT&T store in Phoenix today, and one of the employees said they had a rep in just the other day with a 900. So that at least sounds positive, at least one has landed in the US.
