The SOHO will be released with U.S. Cellular the last week of October. It has been approved for use and will be in stores the end of October, so look out for it.
...
Anyone heard anything (either good or bad) about the performance of this phone?
...
Not much yet, just that the people who test them for us were very happy with it. They said it is much easier to use that most other Kyoceras and that the call reception was great. They should be in our stores by Friday and we are all looking forward to it.
...
is this for US Cellular or Verizon Wireless?
...
Yes it is for U.S. Cellular as of now...we just got them in today..very nice..small.. and has good reception...also the KOI was approved by US Cellular and will be released along with the Nokia 6019i in mid november
...
I work for U.S. Cellular.

I am glad you can let us know about the SoHo. I am very interested in purchasing this phone but none of the us cellular reps around here can tell me when we are going to get it. any ideas? zip code 21550. Thanks again for the info!!! 😁
...
It should be available to all US CELLULAR...sometimes retail stores dont get them for a few days..or agents dont order them when they are first available...but they should be available now...
...
Guess I will have to wait a few days to get one here. I did notice Kyocera updated their site today to show it was available but US CELLULAR isn't showing it on their website yet. Thanks for the info!!

Well, I am in Oklahoma and we just got our SOHO's in yesterday. I sold three of them right out of the box. It is a very small, lightweight phone with a ton of cool features. The speakerphone works well, but is not very loud. Overall, it is a pretty cool phone for the price.
...
Seems to be random places that the SoHo made it this week. What is the price for these phones?
...
According to the Mfr web site, retail is $149.95. There is a thread on www.howardforums.com, in the US Cellular forum, that talks about the pricing with various contracts.

re:US Cellular retail is $179.95
I beleive I saw it today for $10 with a two year contract.
It's a nice entry level phone with no camera bu I woud rather have the KOI due in a month.
...
It might be different in other markets, but for us in Oklahoma, it is 39.95 on $40 plans and lower and 29.95 on $50 plans and higher. Then it gets a $30 rebate, so its free on higher plans. But again, we are a new market for U.S. Cellular so the prices may be different elsewhere.
