This was posted in the $299 thread but its at the way back so I thought I would create a thread so people would have an easier time finding it. Apparently the guys at howard forums don't know jack.
http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2007/09/14/att-tilt-drops-some-knowledge-on-us/
$ 349 with 2 year sign up and data (though I imagine corp will be much cheaper)
release date is listed as late september in the docs.

Thats what I said, however they do mention it in the top paragraph. To be honest Ill still get it even if it doesn't have built in. All I do is put an at&t logo on my punching bag at home to take out my aggression LOL.
oh well I ordered the HTC one lol. Not a bad price on this one tho even without a contract its nice at 549.

$549? I thought they were like $800?
I was saying the att one is not a bad price at 549. The htc unlocked one I got was 789.

They dont have any video calling so whats the point of having an extra low-quality camera?
Wow, $800 HTC Kaiser it is! Screw that ugly nerfed ATT one.

I posted this over at Howard Forums...
There's an online vendor who sells the Kaiser who is offering them to me at $700 for a group buy. If anyone is in IL and is interested, lemme know. The only reason I want to limit it to people in IL is I can drive and meet them someplace so there's no payment/shipping issues. I'm not a reseller and I don't want to be a reseller. I'm just trying to get this as cheap as possible.

I dont think $700 is that cheap though. $600 maybe, I am curious to see what "group" means and will you be able to meet the minimum order in just IL.
I have to buy 5 to get that price. I have Me and 2 buddies from work. So technically I only need 2 more. Figured I'd offer it to the forum.
They are selling them out within days of getting them in stock at 850 so they aren't making much on these at 700. I have just bought a LOT of phones from them and directed a lot of sales their way.
Once AT&T's starts selling, I would think that prices will drop a little but I don't think we'll ever see an online vendor dip below the $700 mark. MMB is $749 which is still the lowest I've seen and he's the most reliable seller I've ever dealt with.
-Mc
Correction: I just checked his website and he raised the price to $779.

5 is a good deal, but at $700 that is too much and all you get is the front camera. ATT for $400 and no front camera is MUCH easier to swallow.

I agree. I just don't want to wait forever for them to release it. I've been holding off because I wanted to see what AT&T did to it. I hate crippled devices. I'm also reluctant to put the 8925 on my account as it could get me kicked off my data plan. A generic device isn't as automated for the system to verify against your plan.
-Mc
Called ATT store by me and asked when they would have the tilt in stock, the guy put me on hold for 2 minutes and told me oct 1st. Surprised to hear he even knew about it and even more surprised to have a date they would have it in store.
Yup me too. i just went to the att store and asked them this afternoon and she said the same thing in october. color will remain the same and as already reported no front camera and so on.........
Some people are claiming that ATT in Manhattan and most of the New York city was selling the 8925 today.
why would u want to watch who u are talking to. if anything u cant lie to the wife when she wants to see where u are if she doesnt believe u .....

What do you mean by getting kicked off your data plan? i have been using the media max bundle for over a year with my treo and my 8525 with no problems. i have never paid the outrageous 60 for a pda data plan.
could you please clarify?

With regards to the TyTn II...
My buddy is vacationing in Hong Kong this week and I was wondering if I'll run into any problems if I have him pick one up for me in the market over there?
I need to have him make sure that it's a 120 with 2 cameras.
I need to have him make sure it's not a German version with the 'z' and 'y' keys reversed.
Are there any other issues or things to consider?
Will I be able to re-flash? I don't know what else to ask.
I don't know if they are available, what the price might be or anything else. I'm also not able to have him bring back a box of them -- he's just a friend on vacation who might be able to do me a favor. (i.e. I'm not going to become a salesman for these.)

Sure, why not. Its not like china has a horrible reputation lately LOL
On a serious note, I dunno, still waiting for mine from at&t. I couldnt resist though.
I bought mine from HK..it's English Version...
All kaiser in HK is with 2 cameras, comes with 1 yr warranty..If any problem within 10 days..they will replace it with new one..
Right now... mine is working great..
Only the ATT ones will have the 100,200 etc. All the HTC branded phones will be unlocked and have all the features.
Consider warranty aspect
The Kaiser versions sold here are with 2 cameras and not locked to any carrier, and available in English. Comes with UK compatible power plug.
Only downside is that there is no worldwide warranty, just Hong Kong warranty.
Price?

Thanks so much for the info and advice.
If I was going to send my buddy around do you have any advice on what the name of the best market is and what his top negotiating price should be (in HK$)? He's Chinese but grew up in the US so he'll probably get taken advantage of like any other expat? LOL
He's been staying near Wan Chai.
Thanks again!

There is a Wan Chai computer mall near where your friend is staying. They have some reputable shops such as Master OA, etc. Some other shops to buy from are Broadway, Fortress, Wilson phone shops, telco shops (CSL and 12Free) - they have shops in many places.
For now, it seems price is pretty standard (HK$5980-6180) since there is only official goods (i.e, from authorized distributor) available. So, it is unlikely your friend will get cheated there. There are 2 versions, English and Chinese with the earlier in lower quantity.
Hope this helps.

Yeah Sin Tat building has tons of shops selling mobile phones including unlocked iPhone and Kaiser. They may have lower price but the I personally prefer buying from more reputable shops.
Hm, regarding ur friends, maybe u should buy some (>1 Kaiser) just in case ur friends turn nasty.
I've heard lots of people here talking about buying their kaisers for $200, EVEN $99!! Where on Earth do you find such a good deal? I have been in the market for weeks on Ebay and can only find ones for $500+. Does anyone have some advice for me on where I can pick one up for at most $400? Anyone selling or know of somebody selling theirs? I don't care if it isn't unlocked or still has the AT&T ROM... I can manage that. Anyways, I could really use some insight from you people. Any info would help. Thanks!

Actually I would be interested to know where you can get a Kaiser for such low prices. Preferably in Europe/UK though. Any suggestions??
well am selling mine for £200 (about $400) it has marks on it hence the low price. pm me if you want more info
I didn't know if there was already a thread for a topic like this. Looks like others are in the same boat as me.
i tried to put a tread on about selling my kaiser before but no one was interested then. so hopefuly i will sell it now
ebay
It's where i got mine from... £300 in november

Do you have ATT service in your area? if so, then you should be able to buy it too. I only said US only because I wasn't sure if the deal would apply to other countries as well. Since it does ask for a zip code to verify availablity I would assume it would work in canada as well. Try it, see if it accepts your zip.
send a PM to me too, i want where can i buy it to
Steal it at HTC manufacture !!! just kidding
AT&T is only for US residents
*sigh*
I guess I'll keep searching ebay.
ill put mine up on the chopping block for $400... its in great condition...

Would really like to buy this phone, been looking on the internet but all the usual suspect like carphone warehouse and phones 4 u don't have this handset, so just a simple question.
Where are people buying their handsets from please?
Many thanks.

I would buy it on expansys or maybe in German shops...it's no big deal because you live in Europe ...and I think on a t-mobile shop they are really expensive

no edge isn't even 3G . Hopefully they roll out the 1900mhz network here soon. I know it's already done in Vegas. They need to do it soon, because it would help them with Iphones as well. They are losing a bunch of customers because of this.
ohhh man thats rough... yeh hopefully they roll out the 1900mhz.... I want you guys to enjoy this gem too
Holy shiiiyit, quite a response, i'm guessing that this phone is something to shout about then, so i'll be picking mine up as soon as i can raise the capital, going to try and get orange care too as it's easily the best insurance.
I'm only a few months into my contract with a standard S3 so i'll sell this beauty and I also have a One X to go too, so should be near the mark when it comes to buying.
I don't mind about the lock on the phone, i'm pretty sure that Voodoo will release something.
I appreciate all of your responses and will thank you all but i only get 8 a day so i'll start from the top.
Many thanks.

Hello there m8, how hope your well, in all honesty i'll just buy it from T-mobile, unless Orange have something i can get.
If not then it's online i go, can't stand flea bay and would prefer a nice long warranty if possible, might wait until carphone warehouse have it, should be a couple of weeks, beginning of November, i'll ask Raffa if he's getting one, he should as i imagine the porting process should be a breeze.
PS: Did you say it's actually thinner?? That's mental if it's true, have they changed the cooling method or something?
