It's March 20th and, right on schedule, Sprint has started taking orders for its first Windows Phone 7 handset. The HTC 7 Pro, renamed the Arrive on the Now Network, can now be had for $200 after rebate when bought with the customary two-year contract. Amazon's doing its usual thing of undercutting carriers' own pricing by offering it up for 50 greenbacks less at $150, and we suspect other online retailers will follow suit. So affordability shouldn't be a problem, but if you're still wondering if the investment will be worth it, we'll have our review of this handset early next week -- just before Sprint makes it irrelevant by blowing the doors off CTIA.

Update: That was quick, Amazon's dropped its price to just $50.

another crappy phone on sprint... lets see what CITA brings
ReplyDeleteI got my HTC Arrive onthe 18th. The phone is great. I thought I might not like the tipped up display when the keyboard is out but it is much more comfortable to hold and see the screen at that angle. The Windows Phone 7 OS is fast and so user friendly. Loving it!!!
