Google lowers upgrade price to $279

ENGADGET:

Good news, earthlings! Apparently Google's taken all the complaints about Nexus One upgrade pricing to heart, because it's giving $100 rebates to current T-Mobile subs who paid $379 for the HTC-built handset -- and it says it'll be offering upgrades to even more current T-Mo subs, although we still don't know how that's determined. That means the new Nexus One pricing tiers break down like this: $579 unlocked, $279 upgrade for (some) current T-Mo subs, and $179 on a new 2-year contract. Handshakes all around. Now, let's fix up family plan activations and that crazy double ETF, shall we?

Yeah but that's still a bit too much if you have to sign a contract. I think it should be 180 if you sign a contract not matter who is your current service provider and 530 if you don't have to sign a contract

I'm sure T-Mobile is still adding the $18 upgrade fee right?
