On account of Amp'd's target demographic, we might normally argue that there are other carriers in the world better suited to take on a business-oriented device like the Q -- but if the rumored upgrades are anywhere close to real (three megapixel cam, "new UI," and integrated SlingPlayer) at the also-rumored price point of $100 -- not to mention the nifty black shell -- Amp'd subscribers would be crazy not to dig it."</i><br /><br /><img src="http://www.smartphonethoughts.com/images/Temporale-20061109-AmpedQ.jpg" alt="User submitted image" title="User submitted image"/> <br /><br />Thanks to Howard Forums it no longer just a greyscale image. Check out the new sexier looking Q. I like the color, and the rumored specs. 8)

This part is REALLY interesting to me. Listed under the Pay-as-you-go section:

"Coming soon, access to monthly subscriptions services such as Amp'd Overload, Overdose, TV &amp; Radio. Keep checking back!"

Amp'd Overload looks like unlimited internet for $15 a month. Hmmm, unlimited internet for $15 plus $.10 a minute? Um yeah, I'll be dumping my PPC-6700 next December and saving a BOATLOAD of money every month. I only use about 20 minutes a month as it is. I mainly use it for the online access.

Not if it's the Q Pro which is rumored to be coming to Cingular. Watch the front page here in the next few minutes. :wink:
