See that is the fly in the ointment, I am NOT available for upgrade with Verizon until Sept 2010.... I had mentioned that way back in my first post I think...
Anyway, I called *611 and they said they would let me upgrade Jan 06 2010 . I can get the Droid for $199 and an additional $20 fee... I might do that....
$50 Bing cashback is valid on any phone purchased from Wirefly.com, regardless of price or service plan selected, EXCEPT FOR Prepaid phones priced under $99.99.
$50 bing rebate
Bing cashback does not apply to orders of accessories, or prepaid phones and phones without a service plan priced below $99.99
The text above is from bings own link...and i called once and had a web conversation once with wirefly's help desk...both times they confirmed you needed a plan of at least $99. the bing info link is very confusing with its double negative language
FIS where did you get your info....i sure would like to get that $50 on a $39.99 service plan....that why i initially asked if any on has actually gotten this deal on a plan of less than $99.

I got my info from having gotten this deal myself! You are right about the double negative though. It's confusing!
Thanks for posting the cheaper price from dell. I will be going to BB tonight to get my droid as my contract is up today for an upgrade. I have $100 in gift cards to BB so mine will cost me $20.00 + tax if they honor the dell ad.
BB offers free activation? Also, my wifes phone is primary on the account, I will need to tell them to activate the 2nd line, correct?
Will post with my results.
Bought my Droid last night at BBY. They price matched the Dell online offer for $119.99. They took another $50.00 off that price since I was up for a new phone w/ 2 year contract extension. My wife got the Droid Eris as well. I had $100.00 gift card to BBY, so they Droid and Eris cost me $28.00 out of pocket... not too shabby.
Where are you located? I went into my local Best Buy in the San Fernando Valley yesterday and the salesman there told me BB doesn't give you the NE2 credit if you buy from them. If they did, and would price match the Dell Offer, I'd buy from them in a heartbeat, but right now it's looking like my best deal is through Verizon On-Line. $199-$100NE2 credit = $99.
If BB would price match dell and give me my NE2 credit, I'd get it for $19.99.
Either way, I'm getting my Droid (and my first smartphone!) this weekend. Looking forward to it....

So, I picked up my Droid last night! Managed to get a BB to sell it to me for $99. What I did was not ask for the NE2 credit, but instead walked in with a letter I had just received from Verizon telling me that I could get the Droid for $99 (after rebate and NE2 credit) and asked them to price-match the $99 Verizon was offering. Which they did.
What's even better is -- since the NE2 credit was actually on my wife's phone (the primary number), she still has that credit if she wants to buy a new phone anytime soon.
Been playing with the phone for the past few hours now - really incredible what it can do --- this is my first smartphone and I'm loving it so far.....
Sorry, forgot to mention - I'm a long time Verizon customer who has the grandfathered $100 NE2. I think most people now only get $50 credit for the NE2.

I not only get $100 NE2, but I am a VZW VIP and I get the 1 year early upgrade with the $50 NE2 discount. 20 days and counting!
