    I can help you to be able to purchase this phone at a whole sale cost through AT&T. I need your zip code to be able to tell you what they'll give it to you for. If you were in my area it would be $139.00 for a two year contract. I didn't look to see what it would be for an upgrade though.

    Anyhow, if you'd like my help feel free to email me and I'll see what I can come up for you.

    QUOTE CNET:

    The good: The Pantech Duo has a unique dual-slider design with a slide-out number dialpad plus a QWERTY keyboard. It comes with the Windows Mobile 6 OS as well as a 1.3-megapixel camera, quad-band support, HSDPA, plus access to AT&T's broadband services.

    The bad: The Pantech Duo has a cheap plastic body with a flimsy sliding mechanism. The QWERTY keyboard felt flush to the surface and was tricky to use

    let me tell you i would cancel this mess and go to sprint. the reason why is Att well they have cheated on the phone bills so long and we were with them for years and eyars. but you hve to watch the phone bills yep, they add stuff and it s called slamming. and if you pay fine if you don't they take it off its not your stuff either. well we have had them take 50 dollars off nearly alot of times which we have really been watching so we went to time warner. its alot cheaper and you get free long distance. i mean the cell phones I know the sprint can go anywhere in the US and that is good and go reception and they give you phones and stuff it much better take care.
