Lightbulb Why the T-Mo 8800 was pulled - 07-23-2007, 06:46 PM

So, T-Mo has pulled the 8800 from the shelves. Heard this from BGR or BBCool, confirmed with a CSR by phone. WHY?

TMO claims it was a backordering issue. That sounds weak to me. Jibi had some inside info on an 83x0 or 88x0 dropping some time this year. They're clearing the stock to get ready for the new device? That makes more sense than the ATT 8820 announcement since they're still selling the old model. Silly timing if they're not ready to release.

I don't think there were enough TMo 8800 technical issues to pull the line - though it was overpriced at $350 compared to VZW and ATT.

What gives?
