$850 is the current price in the US (unlocked)
Folks,
Thanks to a US reseller I was introduced to this forum tonight. So good to know i am not the only one thinking $500-$750 for an XDA like the THD is a lot of money but still will spend it  . Given the fact I can purchase today the THD for $850 (not EURO !) I guess the real cost of it is in the $300 range in mass production. I guess HTC is milking it as much as they can before they will drop the price a bit, but unfortunaetly look around. Unlocked phones did not drop prices by much the last year...
Would i pay $850 for the THD? As stated - yes, if it gives me what I already have. 3G network, and applications to support WVGA. Streching a VGA and sidtorting pics, or having unused areas on the screen while getting a small picture are not quite appealing to me. The rest is big time.
I will keep my HTC P3600 for few more months, them make a decision. I don't like what AT&T offers right now. Small screen and thick phone (keyboard or not) isn't my cup of tea. My P3600 is a little bit over the 1/2 inch, and still fits in a pocket. Iphone? very nice toy. My 14 years old daugther loves it. Not for me !
