Outright price is $254.99. Your read it, I read it, it's just a crazy price for a gen 2 WP7 device that's packed with Nokia Drive as well as other Nokia exclusive software that's coming down the pipeline.
$49.99 for on a 3 year plan but I can imagine that will get quickly dropped to $0 for a 3 year plan.
Looks like either Nokia and/or Microsoft are heavily subsidizing the Lumia devices (at least the 710 at this point if this memo is true - so far, MobileSyrup's track record as far as since I have followed them are pretty damn accurate). That would put some interesting price pressure on Telus who have not release pricing information on the Lumia 800.
On a side note, AT&T will be releasing the Lumia 900 with a 2 year contract price for, get this $99 around mid March. That's also a crazy pricing for the awesome Lumia 900 that on one in Canada has picked up (my bet is on Bell - my dream is for WIND as it looks to be a Pentaband phone).
Looks like the official Nokia/WP7 assault is on.

but will i be able to buy it, walk down to the wind or mobilicity kiosk and use it there??
ReplyDeleteUnlikely. Rogers will be selling the one that uses the 850/1900 bands version. Since wind and mobility are running on the 1700 spectrum, you will not be able to use it. It is unlikely that the lumia 710 will be a pentaband phone.
