Thunderbolt only $444.99 with NO CONTRACT?

[Sploinkin]

Can someone answer this question which was already asked above... Can I just buy it outright for the $449 and then cancel the plan right away and get my old number moved over if I don't have an upgrade yet?

If you buy it outright, you aren't signing up for a new line; that's the whole point of buying full retail. I'm sure you'll be able to buy outright and upgrade your current plan to 4g data (remember the sim card). What I don't know is if Verizon will make you sign a new contract to upgrade to 4g data.

Did anyone get a screenshot of the 444.99 price so I can take it to the store this morning?

It may vary but for a cash disk so high, they may go check on their computers to verify verizons price. That's what we would do

just bought mine. does that mean that they have to do a credit check or anything? or if it says that its confirmed then would i be getting it?

Can someone post their shopping cart or reciept minus person info?
I would really like to finagle this price when I go in this morning.

I don't have a picture of it, but the printed device tag in the store shows the $444.99 price but says it's for prepaid plans.

Hmmm, interesting. I guess I will have a look when I get to the store then...
