pink Samsung Instinct for $600

Jan 1, 2009 gps navigation, phones, samsung

Best Buy just updated their site with a new pink Samsung Instinct. You can get it from them without a contract for $600. Its status is still posted as “coming soon” so you may have to wait just a little more.

$600 maybe a bit too much but as you may have already guessed this is the ‘no strings attached’ price – without any 2 year contract subsidy. More than likely Best Buy will also offer a cheaper version with the contract and everything very soon.

As far as GPS features Sprint’s Simply Everything plan which is $99.99/mo. includes navigation. Yay!
