Guess our phone is recontinued lol

Never understood why they took it off in the first place?! Seems like they would've left it on until the G3 arrives...

lolz if you click on the link that says "Learn more at the T-mobile G2 Home" you are sent to a website about the LG G2x

Does this mean we will see an official ICS OTA? Haha, it would be nice though.

It's not on HTC's list shown on tmonews.com but it could happen if tmobile requested it. I have a feeling this de-discontinued is just to empty extra and/or old stock I wish this was some hint to a coming soon G3 but none in sight so far...

I noticed this as well. Was curious. Only $200 off contract is sweet. Do EIP on it, $50/month is even better. Hopefully these units have the hinges fixed. If so, I'm tempted to pick one up soon.

sorry, just looked weird seeing your name with no thanks attached.
what is the retail on the sensation?
499.99 from what I hear about it.
Faux
Oh yes, been waiting for it. It was either the G2X or the sensation. I'm going with the Sensation.
It's almost like the MT4G, except dual core and a bigger screen. But it's all good. I can't wait!
Why not just wait for the mytouch 4g slide?

I recently got my MT4G and wont be getting this...Guess I will wait for the Quad-Core android devices in 2013!
This phone should be good enough till then, or I can buy one from ebay and put it on the contract I have and sell the MT4G.
How can you guys manage to pay for phones like that? I mean, the earliest you could have gotten the mt4g was like what, 7 months ago? Do you pay full price for them or trade in your current phones or something?

not true, I upgraded to the samsung vibrant back in july after it came out, then the mt4g dropped and so i bought it full price, which was like $400 and then sold my vibrant for $350 on ebay, so out of pocket it costed $50 for the "upgrade", so not trillionaires, just smart shoppers lol
true, if you keep a phone in great condition you can get a good resale value. as for me, I upgraded my sidekick 08 to the mytouch 4g and it cost me around $200 and Im keeping it as mint as possible
Yeah its pretty easy to sell a phone on Craigslist or eBay for a good amount then go purchase a new one at full retail.

I was only joking, i've been doing that with old phones when i see something new. Went from Instinct-->SK09-->G1-->MT3GS-->MT4G
But I had to get a contract to get the cheaper price, so now i have to keep this and cant sell it
Like i said, I work for an indirect dealer. I have my tricks, but get 3 or so phones on New contract price over a yeat

Guys, DO NOT GET THE SENSATION, get the g2x instead the sensation has a arm a8 processor (even though it's clocked at 1.2ghz), compared to the g2x's arm a9(clocked at at 1ghz), so it's actually a better processor, regardless of all the other specs.

I agree it is bizarre their only phones over $99 now are the Infuse, the iPhone, and the mediocre HTC HD7S for Windows 7. I hope this means they got something cool up their sleeves for June that we don't know about.
it might not be june but i think before summer is out SGS2 is coming it just makes to much sense

What people in the comments don't understand is that there is a new group of guys at engadget now while the others are gone at Thisismynext. Josh.T reviewed the Atrix first so his review and opinon might be different than others that are there now.

Upgrading on another phone
I have 4 phones on my plan but only 3 of them have the data (last is for my daughter's emergency phone).
Of the 3 on the data plan, mine still has the medianet plan on my captivate which the AT&T rep was kind enough to keep for me when he upgraded my phone from an older phone to the captivate.
But phone #4 without the data plan is up for upgrade and I'm wondering if I order it online, do I have to pick a data plan for it? Or will it try to put a dataplan on it if I use it with her sim card but not mine?
I'm thinking if I unlock the phone and just put my sim chip in it, I can keep my unlimited, but not sure if the data plan automatically gets put on phone #4 if I upgrade on that.
Anyone know?
Hey guys
Is it the plan version or the RRP? coz I got mine for $550 from other source=(
Crap, I just bought my Atrix on Saturday... Costco gave me a good deal though.

Anyone have any tips or tricks?
I'm a little nervous because I have an N900 which lets me do pretty much anything I want...
Lap Dock
Im wondering if they are gonna dump the price of the phone are they gonna drop the price of the Dock as well? With a locked bootloader im getting kinda bored with this thing. Maybe a dock will give me something to mess around with. Im sure not paying $300 for it though.

299 is questionable. That has to be for the 64gb. My hopeful thinking is 199=16gb, 249=32gb, 64gb, 299. Who knows...
And he said at launch Verizon exclusive. Wtf HTC that too crappy CDMA carrier with ugly logos. Why not just release on all carriers plus the unlocked models. Tired of this exclusive crap.

I'm betting the only way Verizon would put it on their network is if they had initial exclusivity. HTC, wanting to have a phone available on all carriers like Samsung does, was likely forced to comply.
You can blame HTC for accepting this condition, but they're just trying to compete. Verizon is the evil one here.

Got a free G3!!

So I got an email about how LG was giving away free G3's at ATT/Verizon stores and I was looking to buy a G3 all summer, so this was a miracle for me! I got 2 free and it's AMAZING so far! I feel really lucky.
So was there a code or something? I was on the Verizon announcement list and didn't get anything.
Wait, so you just walked in and they gave you 2 free LG G3's. Excuse me if I'm having a hard time believing that you are telling the truth here...

I was on Verizon's G3 mail list and still have heard from them either.
The last time I visited with the store manager (2 weeks ago), he asked me if I knew when the G3 was coming out.
I have a free one locked t oAT&T as well.
If interested, I am selling it for $550 on my local CR.

I stumbled across an ad banner online that took me to LGs site about the giveaway. It was legit and they chose 6 stores nationwide for AT&T and about the same for Verizon. Unfortunately I stumbled across it a few hours after the giveaway. I called the store and they said they had already given them away.

Shrug. I bought the M9 from Sprint and it had Uh-Oh. Maybe the M10 is different.
Anyone seen it available in any of the stores yet?
Sprint is clueless regarding this launch. I have been trying to purchase the phone since early early this morning. Website would not let transaction process as others described. I had an appointment at a Sprint store...not one person could confirm when or even if Sprint will carry the Carbon Grey. So pathetic. I called sales and even they have no clue. They only mention that they have Glacier Silver and cannot confirm if they will ever have Carbon Grey. How does no one in that company have any details?
