As the long time flagship model over at Verizon, the Motorola DROID X has started to feel a little long in the tooth. Many would-be buyers have been waiting to see how low the price of the phone will go, especially with the carrier's first 4G handset, the HTC Thunderbolt, expected to launch soon. Also, we recently showed you pictures of what appears to be the DROID X 2. Throw in the dual-core powered Motorola DROID Bionic and you can see why the days are numbered for the original DROID X.
Verizon has cut the price of the Motorola DROID X to $149.99 with a signed 2-year contract. At Costco, the handset can be purchased for as low as $9.99 with a 2-year contract. But one of the reasons for the price cut could be that once all units that come with a 16GB microSD card pre-installed are sold out, the phone will come with just a 2GB card instead. Now, that isn't the end of the world because you will still have 8GB of onboard memory for emails, apps, texts, etc. And if you need more, the DROID X supports microSD cards up to 32GB. And there is still a chance that the unit you buy could still have a 16GB microSD card installed. It all comes down to luck. Do you feel lucky?
