I can get a new i730 for $199 from Verizon. Is that a good price?

Honestly, I have not priced one, but that appears to be a reasonable price for a device of its capabilities. If you have searched PPCT's forums and are satisfied it does not have inherent flaws, it seems like a nice device. Beware that it does not have Bluetooth 2.0, just v1.2, and the cellular radio will not operate at the same time as Wifi.

I talked with a pharmaceutical sales rep. in an elevator once that raved about his i730. He loved it.

It has WM2003SE, which is a plus for me, over WM2005. I still do not understand why anyone would accept a mobile OS that runs slower and wastes more screen real estate just to ensure their data does not disappear if they allow their battery to run down. That's what backup programs are for, right?
