				T-Mobile MDA and SDA Prices and Release Dates
			 
			 
			
		
		
		
		"We're pretty sure some of you are well sick of hearing about T-Mobile's forthcoming MDA and SDA Windows Mobile handhelds due out next month -- but for those whose attention we've still got, we have solid prices and still somewhat tentative release dates for ya. Expect the SDA (aka the HTC Tornado) to run you $299.99, and for it to probably be released on February 13th, and the MDA (the HTC Wizard) will set you back $399.99 and should probably be released a week later on February 20th. Whomever said the best things in life are free obviously wasn't addicted to cellphones."
 
  
  According to Engadget, you're looking at $299.99 for the SDA (the "Hump Phone") and $399.99 for the MDA. Both are likely to be released on the 13th and 20th of February, respectively.

		Are these retail prices or prices with contracts. Knowing T-Mobile those dates are still pretty much tentative

		Those are almost certainly the price with an agreement. Probably a TWO-year agreement with the way T-Mobile is doing things now.  Oh well...I already have one so I don't care.  But at least I'll have access to service faster with them supporting the device.

		It those prices are for 2 yr agreements, then tmobile might not sell very many units.  The SDA is too expensive, that should be 199 or 249 at most with a contract.  The MDA isn't too bad.
