I have a blackberry copy (LG900 with Net10) … at least it has a qwerty keyboard … tiny keys, hard to see, and use … but the biggest problem is how easily it will butt dial

I'd LOVE to have a flip phone with a qwerty keyboard … something .. anything to protect the keyboard from my fat butt

So I bought another cheap used Captivate Glide from eBay a few months back, my original was a lot better after rooting, but eventually the screen went out. I've rooted my newest, new-to-me, Captivate Glide too, and it has been working swimmingly, no real complaints, other than poor cell signal in my office, but the old one wasn't great there either.

I bought SWMBO a refurbished iphone 5s to replace her 6 year old iphone 4. While at ATT getting a new SIM for her new phone (5s needed a smaller SIM), I played around with the PRIV again, the tag had it listed for $339. I didn't even have to convince SWMBO, we were bringing it home with us.

The young lady helping us finished with the new SIM and transferring apps/numbers from the old phone to the new phone, then started setting up a new PRIV for me. She had an issue, didn't tell us what it was, only that it required speaking with a manager. ATT lady disappeared for a bit, and returned with bad news, the price was a type-o, it was $639 not $339. I didn't make a big stink, I asked if they'd still honor the price but they wouldn't. Allegedly if there was a price error on anything but phones, they'd honor it. Whatever, no PRIV from ATT store for me today.

On a lark, when we got home I googled Blackberry PRIV, and this was the first search result:
Unlocked BlackBerry Priv On Sale For $299

Which lead me to this eBay listing:
BlackBerry Priv STV100-1 -32GB 4G LTE GSM AT&T Black- (Unlocked) Smartphone New

So I now have a new PRIV ordered, cheaper than the "misprinted" price at the ATT store. Should be in my possession late next week.
