an' click on the 'Phones' link on the left, then scroll down the list.
They say $99 fo' the phone (w/2 yr contract plus da standard RS ghetto mail-in rebate I'd think). Kinda don' like the all-silver color on theirs, the two-tone seemed better ta me.
But who cares, looks like its almost here.

God i hope it is all silver, at least then it looks somewhat like a professional phone and not a "girly" phone for a teenager.
One question, does this phone have stero speakers? I dont see any but i know you can answer the phone in speaker mode w/ the clam closed but w/out stero speakers i have to imagin the quality of the speaker phone will be suspect.

What is Inphonic? Is that Radio Shack's legal way of absolving themselves from complete stupidity when it comes to wireless?

Inphonic is an online processing company. Most of the retailers that also sell online use Inphonic.

Why doesn't the phone show up on Radio Shack's website? Not that it matters, I'll never buy a phone from them again. But I'd still like to know. Sounds too shady to me.

Because Radio Shack doesn't sell through their own company online. They have some sort of agreement with Inphonic that Inphonic will process the orders and give some back to RadioShack as a kick back. It is listed on that link the first person provided. If you notice that their "final" pricing is alot different then in an actual RadioShack. Got to love the internet. Take people out of the sales equation. Cost people jobs. Cost the local economies. Cost everyone. But of course the buyer gets a good price at everyone else's expense...

Now bro, can anyone really succeed in doin' that? 😳

Does anyone know if this phone is going to come out as a tri-mode or just digital?
Because on the Radio Shacks Website it only says digital. (Network Compatibility - CDMA 850, 1900) This is from Radio Shacks Website under Phone Details.
Thanks in advance.
