That is what everyone is trying to figure out. They didn't give you a 2yr price either, right?I called two local stores and neither of them knew anything about the 1-year contract price or release date. Anyone else have any input?
It is right there on their site. Just click Pricing for 1yr instead of 2yr.Does anyone know how Verizon typically handles 1-year contracts? I'm assuming they aren't available online since I haven't seen any links for them on their site. However, I've heard they're available in stores and typically $70-80 more than the 2-year price. Is this always true? I'm planning on signing up for a new family plan in which I'd purchase the Thunderbolt as the main line and 2 basic feature phones for my parents, probably the LG Accolade which is free with a 2-year contract. Does this mean that those 2 phones will be $70-$80 each plus the price of the Thunderbolt which will probably be $320-$400 with a 1-year contract?
In the past a 1yr contract meant $70 more for the device.
But seeing as how the 2yr price has gone from an average of $199 to (still not official) $299 for the TB... I'm sure we'll likely see an increase from the $70 difference. I'd guess that VZW will be asking around $400 for 1yr for the device.
Why is the Atrix on AT&T priced at $199 for a 2yr yet VZW sees they can get away with charging $100 more for new devices? Because it's LTE? What a crock...
They are flat out taking advantage of their customers because they know they have the best coverage and most of us won't leave VZW because we can't sacrifice service.

Fact.
I've also heard $70 more for a one yr deal.
Vz is definitely recognizing their dominance in the market and have no reason to incentivcise devices. I'm sort of surprised they haven't done away with one year deals all together (unfortunately) . Not that anyone cares but you can't get an iPhone on a one year deal regardless of carrier. I work in financial industry and as we all know money talks n bull sh!t walks.

Thank you. Source?2 year contract = $299.99
1 year contract = $379.99
Full retail = $699.99
Confirmed.

If you're not activating this device on the LTE network the price should be reduced :icon_ devil:.... I know it'll never happen.... but I'd pay the difference down the line once LTE was available.
Just find it nonsense that because it's a 4G capable device I have to pay a premium for it even though 4G is not available in my area.

Bump this. I want the device very badly, but am not in a 4G area yet (we only have it at the airport). That would be awesome if we could pay less to use 3G only, but I don't see it happening.
Are we sure that the $50 they jacked up the price is to compensate for LTE capability? I suppose its possible...
