unfortunately, many have been waiting for years for a new world phone to come out to replace the i2000 so they didn't have to switch
sim cards.
iDEN phones have always been expensive will be until the networks have been completely tied together a few years down the road. It's nothing new...the i95 was $400 when it came out when cingular offered phone with color screens that were much better for only $100. It's expensive to develop for a network that is very different. these phones only run on
iDEN and R & D to make a new phone is very costly as opposed to a v180 that can be unlocked to run on any carrier that has one standard network for all the other providers.
we as nextel customers get very excited when we see advancements which is why we pay more for the new phone...and nextel knows this!
