What if the new ITT will cost about $700, will you guys still buy it?

I would pay $700 if the new ITT had a decent GPS, Skype with video or at least video conferencing from ITT to desktop computer.

So you guys are considering buying the site off Reggie? $700 sounds a little low, honestly.

More seriously, a what if is all well and good, but Nokia prices themselves right out of the market if the push $700. We know that, they know that. It wont be that expensive.

I don't suppose there's been any indications when the new IT is coming out?My poor old 8250 phone is on the way out, and my iPod mini is too, N800 still going strong. I was thinking of getting an iPhone to combine the functionality of all three (don't hit me), but if there's a new internet tablet coming soonish, I might hold off a while...

Summer 2009 is a safe bet.

If it were 770 sized with hard case, GPS, and new fancy processor with more memory, yes.

At $700, it'd be real hard to justify, but depending how scarce Pandoras continue to be, I just might.

There's competing platforms in that price range (refurbed U820 comes to mind), but not with comparable mobility. $500 or so seems more likely, and at that price I'm almost certain to.
