Re: Go for it said by KrK:I don't think the phone needs to cost that much. Chances are $250 is probably closer to the mark, Basis? Besides, unlike European phones, this phone would have to have multiple transmission technologies so that it can work with all of the US cell carriers. That's going to add to the manufacturing cost of the device, especially working out how to wire the thing such that each transmission technology is equally configured for optimal connectivity.
