This is a netbook, not a $1000+ laptop. I'd Imagine the cost of the product at around $350. Throw in the subsidy of about $150. Puts the 'book at $199. $99 after MIR. at $60 per month the att kickback for gaining an activation is still going to net you (your store) at least $130 or more. That's profit. Money in the Bank. Padding the coffers. However you want to put it, it's a win-win situation. @ ATTguy

It was announced in a recent meeting. We heard it would be the acer, but AT&T does have a relationship with Dell already, so it makes sense. It is. It was announced in a recent meeting.
