The picture (below) was originally posted on Precentral, and shows a hefty 50 percent discount of the current $199 USD price tag.
Rumors began flying that Sprint or Palm was in desperate need of a sales boost or that the companies had finally decided to take a more aggressive push against the Apple iPhone 3G/S. Speculation does not seem to matter anymore however, as a Best Buy Maketing Manager, John Bernier, has posted on his Twitter page that the price was just an error, and is quickly being fixed at stores nationwide.
Many consumers were able to get the phone for $99, so it seems like someone at Best Buy will likely get the axe for the mistake, but note that the price is now back to $199 USD.
