Despite the fact that Sprint will be gunning for as many new and extended contracts as possible upon the Pre's release, there remains a small but faithful group of users with money to burn who only purchase unlocked wireless devices or at full retail without signing a contract. To date, the two biggest remaining questions have been whether or not Sprint and Palm will even offer Pres for sale without contract at full retail price and, if so, what that price will be for the Pre both retail and subsidized.
; w5 E7 S2 w- `3 v! {, dLast week we reported on an internal Best Buy inventory leak that suggested the full retail price of an unsubsidized Pre would be a staggering $999, though this amount was suspected to be a temporary placeholder price. Now thanks to some clever sleuthing and calculating, engadget is speculating that the full retail price of the CDMA Pre may actually be a bit more reasonable than previously reported.

/ |3 V. f* a5 z  v+ {engadget arrived at their Pre retail price by subtracting the known cost factors from the new Palm/Spring Pre giveaway sweepstakes' total prize value. After discounting the total Sprint service plan cost, all taxes, surcharges and the cost of the Touchstone accessory dock, Sprint arrived at a grand total of $469.99. Additionally, some are speculating a Sprint subsidy anywhere from $200 to $300 on new devices with a 2yr contract, so the retail price of the Pre could be anywhere from $150 to $299, depending on whether or not mail-in or instant rebates are involved.
For comparison purposes, Palm.com currently sells CDMA versions of these devices without contact for Sprint at $399 for the Centro and $549.00 for Sprint's Treo Pro.

尽管Sprint想要在pre的发售前寻求更多的新合同以及延长合同，仍然存在着一小部分很现实的玩家愿意烧钱去买无网络锁或者不签合同全额购买pre。到目前为止，仍然存在的两个最大的问题是
1，palm和sprint会不会提供不签约全额购买pre的机会，
2 如果这么做了，pre将会以什么价格出售，补贴价又是多少？

上个星期我们报道了best buy 内部泄漏的一则关于pre的全额购买价为惊人的999美刀的事件，虽然这个价格可能是一个临时占位的价格（一种商业的策略，有吹友提到过： 先放高价占位，上市价格比改价格低不少，形成很好的对比 ，鼓励用户购买）。不过多亏了一些精确的分析和估计显示，瘾科技估计不签约的cdma网络制式的pre价格将会较之前公布的更加的合理。

瘾科技是通过已经公布的pre的成本和最新的palm/sprint进行的抽奖作为奖品的总价值金额进行推算得到现在的价格的。扣除sprint的服务计划的成本，所有的税款，附加费以及tuchstone的配件底座的成本，sprint的总价为469。99美刀。此外，有人猜测sprint会为签约两年的用户补贴200-300美元不等，所以pre的签约价会是150美元到299美元，价格的多少要取决于是否需要邮寄或者即时退税的情况。

不知道CDMA的Pre何时才能到中国，希望年底能有。
