Nokia's Comes With Music premium in the $150 range?

We put "free" in quotes for a reason, and now it seems the dark, nasty truth could be upon us. While pre-order prices on a retailer's website should be taken as pure speculation and nothing more, a couple of notable examples reveal £70 to £85 premiums on the Comes with Music version of two phones. For instance, Expansys offers up Nokia's N95 8GB for £394.99, but the CwM edition is a stiff £479.99. It's hard to say if the prices are jacked up by Nokia's directive, but again, we aren't getting too riled up until these things launch for real.

"Comes with Music" has to be the most uninventive name...ever.

but its effective.

i would pay 150 upfront for a device if I was able to get all the music i wanted on it for no monthly or per track charge.

Comes With Music is better than VCast Music with Rhapsody I think...

But hey, I cant get any music capable Nokia phones. So, boo-hoo for me.

oh, I forgot about the 6315i... but for real, who actually beleived that was a Nokia.
