Word on the street is that Sprint has come to their senses and will slash the price of the HTC Touch Pro2 from $349.99 to $199.99 after contract signing and mail-in-rebate on October 1st.  This move only seemed inevitable since Verizon already sells the exact same handset for the purported new lower price and with the iPhone and many other smartphones costing less it’s probably the only rational thing to do when it comes to remaining slightly competitive.  Course if I were you, I’d just buy me a Palm PRE from Letstalk.com, who is currently selling it for $79.99 after all the fine print stuff.

Note: if you bought the phone before this rumor emerged, hit up Sprint’s customer care and you should be able to get $100 credit, at least that’s what some folks are saying. Course, you might have to wait until this news becomes official.
