I am starting to think that negotiations with Broadcom might have had something to do with this i760 holdup as well as GIN and other accesories sold separately. The strategy behind the Verizon-Broadcom deal probably had to be put to bed before product pricing could begin, in order for VZW to achieve its price margin goals. I cant believe I am saying this, but I am actually impressed with this VZW move. Although $6 a device isn't a drop in the bucket to them, they made sure that they got past the problem and hopefully they will soon move on to other announcements.....
