The AWS website simply says it is undergoing compatibility testing in the US. That's probably all that's official so far. Hopefully they approve it soon! Of course it'll cost more than the phone itself. Probably more than 2 phones and maybe even 3.

It's not like they'll sell a million. Low volume = high price.

I fully understand that concept. However $300 for a piece of plastic that holds a Motorola RAZR is insane regardless of how you look at it. Having said that...when the overpriced piece of plastic that holds the iPhone comes out, I'll be buying it.
