Only rub seems to be it requires a $60 per month voice plan.

If you bought it on preorder it was 200... 499 -100mir for phone and dock. that's 399 - 199 = 200.

I don't get why everyone was freaking out at how much they cost...

For new customers only, rats!

Rats, only good for new activations, not for renewals - the renewal price is $449.99.
I would have totally jumped on it for $249.99!

Not really sure what numbers you are talking about there, this is for the phone and the lapdock. I have seen deals for $130 for the phone by itself, but never anything in this range for the phone and lapdock together. Plus no requirement to purchase tethering.

lol wut?

it was never $200 for the phone and dock together...

 

[Xarinn]

It was 599 - 100 mail in rebate in the at&t stores...

Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

 

[FNugget]

To be accurate, what the said was 499 AFTER the 100 rebate.

They never said 599 and a 100 rebate. Anyway, that makes Nonov's math look like:
"If you bought it on preorder it was 300... 599 -100mir for phone and dock. that's 499 - 199 = 300."
Which is what people have been saying for months.

From the OP, the letstalk bundle is 450, 50 off ATT. With an additional 200 off, thats 250. If you put the worth of the phone at 200, as Nonov did, this makes the laptop 50.

Ah, remember when everyone was throwing rumors of 150/150 for phone/laptop dock? But eh, it's the last push for new customers for ATT.

And it was just removed. Interesting though, it made me check my account and apparently my account IS available for upgrade +$50 off. I could get an Atrix for $150 right now. Weird since I got my Captivate last summer, but I'm not complaining! Don't think I'm gonna go with the Atrix though.

Yup, got my order in just in time. I agree I am seeing "Sorry, this product is no longer available." Listing on the page.

Ugh, now LetsTalk is claiming the pricing was a mistake, according to AndroidPolice they may attempt to cancel the orders:

Update: LetsTalk/Walmart Wireless now says "this product is no longer available." When we called them, we were told the sale was a mistake. We aren’t yet sure whether the $250 price will be honored for customers who already bought the bundle.

[waltah!]

They are only selling AT&T for another week so I'm sure it'll be discounted. You also sign additional contracts and Let's Talk is known to be a pretty iffy place to buy phones.

Agree, it seems that the current deal would give me an ETF fee of over $600 if I canceled in the first 6 months. But I can live with that.

** Update 2-28-11 **

I think I will just update this post, since I don't want upset people by gloating about this great deal.

Walmart issued me a delivery date, so I called to confirm that it was accurate. The Wal-mart rep told me that they would be honoring the deal. I thought that was pretty cool of them.
