i hope the best buy leak was true too…then you can get it for $30 but i don’t know if best buy requires data/messaging plans for their discounts…

If you look on the very bottom of the picture, it says, “The Nokia 5230 will require a $9.99 or higher data/messaging feature to be eligible for a mail-in upgrade or new activation rebate.” So to answer the question of the data plan being required, i think it can be either messaging or the data plan just for the rebate. I’m assuming you can buy it for $179.99 and not have to buy a data/messaging plan

I want this phone and i have a family messaging plan but dont necessarily need the data plan so i’m hoping this is the case(=

after reading the above posted image more carefully, the $10 web2go is ONLY required if you want to get the mail-in rebate…I’m pretty sure it’s not required for 2 years though so you can drop the web plan after you get the rebate.

$10 web2go does give full browsing access…whether or not it’s required with this phone, we’ll just have to wait until the release date to find out!

looks like just white with switchable back covers according to nokia’s websites.

I’m hoping someone can clear up a few quick things for me here.

- Is the $10 data plan required for this phone? I’ve seen people go both ways on this.

- The $10 data plan gives full web browsing access right? I’ve seen people say it’s just the basic web2go package.

Please help me out, thanks!

Does anyone know if this phone will come in black?
I know you can swap the battery cover to different colors, but I would like the front in black.

got to play with it the other day, too. I’m a girl, so my hands are smaller. It fits perfectly. The HD2, which I am more inclined to get just to wag in my iphone friends’ faces more than anything, was humongous and I couldn’t even hold it very well. Honestly, I would love to get it the HD2 but I am clumsy to begin with and it would most likely slip out of my hands more often than not. I think I may be going for the Nuron.

Of course, I’m upgrading from the nokia 5300, so my opinions of OS’s don’t amount to much :)

Sync with Outlook\Google calendar? If I can sync my Outlook\Google calendar and avoid the $30\month data plan, I would be all over this phone.
