I just got mine in today.

It is awesome. Even though it says R225, R225 is the old model and they are out of those, so you get the R225M with AIM on the phone for free!

Best DEAL ever.

Uh... the URL is hyphenated or something... "http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/t...6198877-2673706" - what happened to the rest?

My friend's father just got this phone with VoiceStream service. It's a pretty decent phone with some nice features but the kicker is the $100 profit after rebates!

Got this message at Amazon's rebate status web page:

"Promotion: Up to $250 On Cell Phones
Department: 034563

The UPC symbol or proof-of-purchase tab you submitted is not valid for this promotion.
You will receive a letter or postcard explaining this problem. The letter or postcard may have additional instructions on how to correct this problem.
Promotion Type: Rebate

I just knew there were going to be problems. Getting paid $150 to take the Samsung R225 seemed too good to be true. I called them up and they want me to FAX the UPC copy to the resubmittal department. Lets hope that it gets approved.
:frown:

I suspect the rebate is only good for the R225 UPCs and since Amazon is substituing the R225M, the rebate is not valid on that one.
