Congratulations AT&T, you killed HTC's tablet
05.09.11
If, like many, you’d prefer to go contract-free and perhaps use a pre-paid SIM with your tablet, AT&T’s unsubsidized price for the 4G slate is $849.99. In contrast, the iPad 2 WiFi + 3G – with 32GB of storage, just like the Jetstream – is $729 with no data commitment. Over the course of the Jetstream’s two-year contract, then, it’ll cost you $1,539.99.
Lack of competition is part of the problem. AT&T is offering the Jetstream exclusively in the US, which means there’s no inter-carrier price war to help take the edge off the launch day sticker. While it could be paranoia, there’s a sense that AT&T may have picked up the Jetstream more to prevent other carriers from getting it than because of any outright intention to promote it itself.
