Does anyone know when the Razr is going to drop in price? I’m ready to buy it but I know as soon as I do it’s going to drop to $250.

insurance thru assurion will net you a refurbished phone. I have an option, for the same cost as assurion, to give you a brand new one out of my inventory.

Definitely go with Geehee’s option… my assurion refurbed replacement was worse off than the phone that was being replaced

yea and not to mention I had the phone for a bit less than two years at what ~6$ a month for insurance and still had to pay another 50$ for the replacement.

So figure 20 months at 6$ a month is 120 plus 50 is 170$ for a phone that only cost me 150$ brand new… yea not worth it haha.

I’ll definitely go through you. So I should just buy a phone online, opt for no insurance, and then see you when I have it?

I swapped my nexus s out for an iphone 4s… the battery on this thing blows… I will probably swap back to the nexus s, root and install cm9… looks pretty stable and they said all major features are working

I thought he was just talking about insurance, but after re reading it you may be right…which would be awesome.

Check out BrainMaster’s rom, it will probably be updated later today or tomorrow, so just wait for V7. I’ve been on V6 on my NS 9023a for a while and everything works perfect… and it’s quick. 3800 AnTuTu scores (3400 quadrant for those who care). Not as fast as the GB roms… but is’s fast.

Here’s the ones from yesterday that still show 10 cents. Remember once you buy it, you own it. Get a new phone, you still have it.
