Treo 650 for Verizon only $299

[maw4bc]

Did I see that commercial right? I think I just saw a Verizon commercial selling the Treo 650 for $299. Did I see that right? Also Could you buy a Treo650 from Verizon and use it for Sprint?

To answer the bold: Nope...Verizon branding = ESN not in Sprints ESN list.

what is the cheapest you can get the 650 for from sprint?

Probably the absolute cheapest would be if you have a business account. That would get you an extra $120 off, bringing the cost down to $329.99.

How many phones would you need on one line for it to be business? Or do you have to apply for business?

They have a commercial out right now that is advertising it for 299. Probably after rebates.

yes, with new activation it's 299. But it's verizon, your going to end up paying more with the plans, especailly their data plan. You end up saving more with sprint ( not on the phone, but with the data plan) so really it balances out

How much would my bill change right now if i got a treo 650? I currently use:

Unlimited Text
Picture Mail
Vision
Video Mail

Is there a different charge that will be added or I will need to add? Will vision cost more?

[FloorMatt]

Vision won't cost more for a Treo.........only WinMo (Windows Mobile) phones have an extra charge (that some people didn't have to pay.....cuz of luck)

[Jordan]

data for the treo on verizon costs 50 dollars a month... that's ontop of your regular voice plan!!! Thanks but no thanks, sprint is for me :)

the 10% off is with new line of service- you need Fed tax #, copy of front page of a tax return or business incoporation papers (like anyone has those handy), and I think a copy of a utility or phone bill with the name and address. You fax it to sprint and you're a business account in a few hours. No number of phones are required.

Pricing is the same for plans as far as I can tell- and it confuses the heck out of people at the sprint stores. You can't get instant rebates or discounts but instead get service credits.
