    “Oh, Snap!” proclaims Alltel, seemingly out of nowhere.

    Verizon glances over. “What? Don’t say that. It hasn’t been cool since nineteen ninety never. It makes you sound like a jerk.”

    “No, no. Not like that. I just started offering the HTC Snap.” Alltel responds, staring off into the sky.

    “I already offer the HTC Snap, and I own you.”

    “Well, now I can offer the snap in the 91 markets you weren’t allowed to take over when you bought me.”

    “Oh. Well, you’re still a jerk.”

    Yep – Alltel’s got the HTC Snap now. They want $80 bucks a pop (after a $70 mail-in rebate) with a 1-year contract for this guy. If you’re down with WinMo 6.1 and are in one of the markets still flying the Alltel flags, that’s really not too bad of a deal.
