Motorola Droid now $119.99 on Dell Mobility

If you were waiting for an early Christmas present and you currently reside on the Verizon Wireless network Dell has the goods.  The Motorola Droid is now available for just $119.99 on a 2-year service agreement (upgrades and new subscribers welcome) through Dell’s Mobility Site.  In case you are a bit suspicious of how Dell can offer such a great deal the bottom of the website states, “Transactions are entered into with Simplexity and will appear on your credit card statement as Cell Stores* Dell Mobility Store”.  If the name ‘Simplexity’ is not ringing a bell this is actually the new name of WireFly which has been around for years selling wireless products and services.  In any event the deal is great and the device comes new from Verizon Wireless with a full U.S. warranty so what are you waiting for?

Thanks Stefan
