Did any of you guys experience this? What did you guys do?
Last time I upgraded was in September of 2007 when the 8320 came out.

i got mine for $299 - $100 mail-in rebate = $199, which is the full discount price for 2 year contract with tmo. the original offer was the same as yours which is $429 (partial discount). been with tmo for only 4 months and i asked cs to transfer me to the retention dept (customer loyalty). told them that bold is $199 with att and storm is $149 with verizon. planning to cancel tmo if i didn't get at least $199, so they gave me the full discount. ordered it yesterday 6 am EST and the phone arrived 2 pm today. i asked for 3 day shipping, but UPS did a faster delivery (one day only, awesome!). i spread the total price to 4 installments. sweet...
i'm loving it right now. will try to upgrade os later tonight.
