Re: something for free...? The ones I've linked to are all Windows XP ones. I personally bought the one from Amazon, since it was $240 with no tax and free shipping. The same exact one, with XP, is at Best Buy, but not at my local store. I'd have to order it online and pay 6% MI sales tax and $12.99 shipping.
And I'd agree that people who are stupid and buy these on 2-year contracts, if they don't want the data plan, are going to get what they deserve. The quote I saw about "back to school" made it sound like they are going to put them for $100 at a retail store like Best Buy (who does sell mobile service plans as an agent at least). I would agree that people looking for a back-to-school computer aren't going to be looking at a Verizon store, but if this $100 thing is at Best Buy, they may pick it up. |
