Microsoft Kin Pricing and Availability Announced
Written by Alan Friday, 7 May 2010 08:00
A “sort of Windows Phone 7 preview” in the form of Kin is available for pre-order today. The Kin runs a scaled-down version of the coming Windows Phone OS, which includes full Zune features.
It was announced yesterday HERE. It looks pretty good, but is aimed at the younger crowd. I will wait for the full OS available later this year.
KIN Availability and Pricing Announced
Starting May 6th, you can order KIN online at Verizon Wireless and on May 13th, KIN will be available in Verizon Wireless stores.
KIN ONE is available for $49.99.
KIN TWO is available for $99.99.
Prices for KIN ONE and KIN TWO are after a $100 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement with Verizon Wireless.
To truly get the most out of your KIN, you will need to be on at least a Verizon Wireless Nationwide Talk plan and an Email and Web for Smartphone plan. Verizon’s Nationwide Talk plans begin at $39.99 with monthly access. And their Email and Web for Smartphone plans start at $29.99 for unlimited monthly access.
