If you happen to have an iPhone you're willing to give up, T-Mobile appears to be running a promotion at certain locations through May 19 that would give between $100 and $350 off of a new HD2 for anyone trading in a working handset.
***
This is a great deal for all the iphone users who are tired of their device and decide to jump on the hd2 bandwagon. It must be noted though that this offer is good only at PARTICIPATING t-mo dealers, so it's better to check with your local store if it's joining the club
The other great thing is that you don't need to sign a new T-Mo contract when making the trade-in.
For more info, take a peek here:

It's fake, I went to the store and employees have never heard a blip of this deal.
It's posted on april first anyways.

Actually, sorry to break it to you... but it's NOT a "fake".
I'm a T-Mobile Sales Representative in Dallas, TX. And a close friend of mine, also fellow XDA user, "Heartbreak" utilized said offer just this afternoon.
He actually received $400 in "store credit". We only had one HD2 available.
That invoice that's picture is REAL. Just because it isn't "promoted", doesn't mean there aren't ALWAYS such deals going on.
Does it have to be an Iphone?

YES! YES! And... YES!
It absolutely has to be an Apple iPhone. And from what I understand... we're NOT taking 1st Generation devices, but in some cases, my managers both suggested we're willing to make exceptions based on the conditions.
Anyway, this is quite charitable of T-Mobile, considering very few companies EVER do such a thing in terms of providing one of the hottest devices on the planet (right now) for the most popular, in exchange for store credit.
T-MOBILE USA, FTW!!!
I was *just* able to order my HD2.. literally 5 minutes before I found this post.
if you go to the website on the screenshot, is asks for a promo code.. how are customers provided with the code? should I call back?

How are they ripping on it? They are basically stating the obvious..
Reminds me of Bill Gates saying that 640K of memory would be enough.
They are more ripping on sprint and their 4g and prices
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
IMO. 4g is great and all, but if you live in an area with 4g coverage, you probably already have good 3g coverage. I'd rather just use 3g because I've noticed 4g is a major drain on battery life.
You, I admit, I did not read the article fully, I was trying to do breaking news.. lulz apologies!
Yeah, I saw that too the other day. Not only did they get the prices wrong for the plans but they say the $10 fee is for the 4G even though that is not what Sprint says it is for.
The same day this article came out another one talking up the iPhone and AT&T showed up...
I thought they were fair and balanced.
Foxnews is the worst they always lie, I just don't know why so many people follows what they say!! even though most of the time they are wrong!!
Their pricing is way off! Before I rooted this month my bill was $119.00 for the EVO with 4g charge and hotspot tethering.

And what's worse is that they don't even bother correcting it which makes me think they are intentionally lying. I hope Sprint sues their asses, it's about time someone calls them out for their lies.
While I don't really like fox news, they didn't really lie about plan pricing. The said "full plan" which, to me, implies sprint's "simply everything" plan, which is $100.00. Plus $30.00 for hotspot, plus $10.00 for "premium feature" (which we all know is 4G...) that brings a monthly bill to $140.00.
I personally pay $80.00 like I'm sure a lot of others do as well, the everything data 450. Who needs the simply everything plan... landlines are SO 2009. (Lol)

How are they lying? Which phones get charged $10 premium fees? The Evo 4G and the Samsung Epic 4G. Hmmmm........only two phones with 4G. The only reason Sprint does not state that you pay $10 for 4G because other people in areas that dont have 4G would not have to pay.
even if 4g phones on sprint cost $10 more a month, its still cheaper than [email protected] or verizon for an equal plan. AND we have truly unlimited data, v and a dont
imo 4g is not over hyped. its ****ing fast.
also, I think buying a new device for new technology is not so outrageous, at all. Apple does it all the time, heck, their first phone didnt even have 3g... lol if you buy a new hd cam and your computers graphic card just isnt up to par, you need a new one, same with everything else, if you want the latest of one side of tech, you need the latest on the other side as well. and thats a common know fact. suck it up fox
AND REMEMBER the 1st iphone was like $700 because it was first, We all know Fox News sucks anyway, Sprint sue their ass!!

Obama has nothing to do with lawyer greed. If you are trying to refer to socialism there, sorry to burst your bubble, but what would you do without medicare? Medicare is a form of socialism.
Granted by the time I retire, there won't be enough money going into medicare to cover people. xD
*Edit* Nice job removing the Obama reference.
Google has recently begun selling the GSM HSPA+ Galaxy Nexus for only $399 on their Play store. Incredible deal.

Don't think so, sorry.
Damn good price!
This might be a first for when the CDMA variant will go for more used than the GSM. I'd imagine used prices will start dropping on these rather quickly, especially the docomo version.
CDMA Galaxy Nexus's will be $200 used in no time.
I would say the GSM will be about $300 and the white being $350-400 probably.
shipping + tax makes it 437 to FL.
not buying it as I already have one ...
Yeah. same price its always been on ebay once you add the tax and shipping...
Can you use MEdia Net with these on at&t?

Weird. Usually American sites allow Canadians to at least purchase it online and get it shipped to somewhere in America. I personally live close the the border and go over all the time so it's pretty normal for me to purchase things online and ship them to America and pick it up when I'm in America every week or two.
Ah well, I imagine I'll be able to with proxies or something.
yes $437 to Florida that is a copy of my checkout webpage
For me it was only 409.50 w/ shipping, tax said 0.00, I didn't go any farther than complete this purchase though.
Thinking about going for it.
And so it begins. Great price!

So I have an upgrade waiting for me to use from Sprint, and I don't expect to be leaving them any time soon. Question: What are the advantages of purchasing an unlocked note 2 now (other than the contract independence)?

To be honest, I would like a NICE backup phone and for this price it's a hell of a bargain... IMO I know that prices will always fall but if your looking to use this on AT&T or Straight Talk in the US then it's a good deal considering that this device will get the updates quicker (usually) and HSPA+ is fast enough for a lot of people... I will probably ditch one of my Galaxy S 3's to pay for this (mostly) and return this open boxed one that I just got on Monday cause it's acting weird and I paid for a "NEW" item and got an open-boxed N7100 so Amazon can handle that one since it was fulfilled by them... I will probably end up getting a Note 2 on Verizon once the bootloader is unlocked (which you know it will be!) and everything will be grand!! Thanks OP!

There is none, all these unlocked versions won't work on Sprints network...
I'm definitely happy that some are able to purchase these and I wouldn't hate but that seller seems to have some rough (recent) feedback.

I hope this is not a scam. 200 units sold and keep counting. There was a listing of galalxy s3 i9300 for $399 and they got over 200 units sold. And it turned out that the seller didn't have any unit in stocks.

What would be the actual shipping cost to Canada including insurance? Are you sure it is not a fair price? I know insurance can get pricey especially when shipping international.

Verizon is also offering a handful of deals for this device, waiving all activation and upgrade fees and $100 for any working condition trade-in during purchase of a new Droid Turbo. All of it is available starting on October 30.

Verizon's the biggest carrier in the United States, which has 3 other carriers that cover a majority of the country's mostly middle class population. The "Droid" name is pretty big in my experience. When iZombies ask me about my phone, they almost always say "Is that the new Droid?" or "Is that the new Samsung?"
