I heard about a 299 bucks?
Can't wait!
Expect a price similar to the top-end Android handsets, maybe even slightly more.
It will go down over time, of course.....
We won't know solid pricing for most countries for another 2wks, maybe more.
There are prices out already, but most shouldn't be trusted entirely, yet.

What to do? choices choices...

Holy ****. $829 AUD!?
Quick search and I can find the 64GB for less than that...
The best SGSII prices are about $180AUD less, so it's still going to struggle massively.
In all fairness the SGSII's been here for about 6months, so it's had more time to settle.
Then of course there's the carrier/reseller contracts that are slowly starting to drip-out.
They're actually looking "okay-ish" compared to contracts available for SGSII etc.
*I don't care if it includes a headset, I'll buy a headset if I want one.
I don't want the cost of a headset included in the price if I don't need one!

It's $770USD... mobicity's price has gone up again (was $769AUD, not 799), but thinkofus is still $745AUD.
It is not representative of pricing in NA/EU anyway....
Australia has a stronger dollar than the US, so that bumps the price up.
Plus CE is always more expensive here than most of the big economies in EU/NA, & many countries in Asia.
