This isnt an add or want to buy. This is more of a curiosity question. I already have a v60i. I was watching tv and i saw a commercial for the v300 for 24 dollars. Is that if you sign up? If i were to buy it would i be able to get it for the 24 bucks as an already subscriber? Or must i pay the whole price of the phone? I find this cell phone stuff very confusing.

 

Its on a 2 year contract. And probably a mail in rebate.

 

which cell subscriber did u see it advertised for?? rogers or fido?

cuz at $24 for 2 year is VERY cheap, i would sign up, cancell the contract and pay $200 sell the phone for like $350 and profit that extra $150, so please tell me where


and if you were to sign up you would have to get a new number, a new plan.

 

the rebate for the phone usually comes in the form of a credit for your cell phone account not in a cheque that you can cash for money...they do this so people dont do what BladeX wanna do...and the rebate usually takes 2 months to be processed

 

i never saw a commercial for 24 dollars... that's really damn cheap.. the cheapest i've seen is 150.. which is what I paid!!

 

the c370 is 24.99 from rogers not the v300 thats 199 at the present moment

 

Yeah i was watching tv and they said get any one of these 3 coloured screeen pyones for 24$.

 

Oh yeah before i forget it was with rodgers i believe.

 

hmm its really cheap and even after rebate...if your a new subscriber or your contract has just ended this is a really great deal, the phone alone is worth about $400 if you were to sell it brand new

but the phone i heard alot of people sending it back to rogers or motorola alot and getting new ones in return because they get dead pixels on the screen, and some other problems i dont know

 

I believe rogers says get any one of these 3 colour phones starting at 24bucks...thats how they get u in the store! cuz the website still says its 200bucks after rebate

 

^^ You may have a point there, then i guess.

 

The V300 is very cool...

 

^^ Cource it is. It is such a nice phone. But i aint gonna go out and pay 300 for it. Damnit.

 

if you like the v300, just wait for the v600 to hit rogers in the next 2 to 3 weeks!!

That v600 is so nice. But so expensive.

 

the v600 goes for 1k if you buy it from stores

go on howardforums alot of people selling mint ones for like $600-700

yeah if anyone had the time they can sue rogers for false advertising, bait n switch maybe

 

1k for a cell phone. ****. That is a lot. I will stick with my non camera non colour screen v60i.

 

haha yea i know its quite expensive..but really nice..i hope ill be able to have one soon...not paying 1k for it though...anyone wanna do a group buy? i know a dealer in vegas..well my cousin does...hmm maybe this should be in the Group Buy section..duh well..just testing waters on the topic!

 

i was gonna wait for the v600 but then i saw the price tag, and decided i'd settle with the v300... meh.. i like phones but i'm not rich!

 

For those of you who just got the v300, how's the reception? Any problems w/ dropped calls and such as with older motorola phones (esp. v60).

I'm still on a Nokia 8260 (can the laughing folks ) and it still has better receptions than lots of GSM phones, do you think the v300 would be better?
