Motorola CLIQ listed for free on contract at T-Mobile, $400 straight-up

We'll caution you -- this could all just be one big misunderstanding (or a case of the fat fingered admin), but Motorola's newly launched CLIQ is currently listed for $0.00 on contract over at T-Mobile (and $399.99 with no strings attached). Available in both Winter White and Midnight Titanium, the outfit's first-ever Android phone can't actually be added to one's cart (trust us, we tried... repeatedly), but if these figures are right, we can surely say that the barrier to entry on higher-end smartphones will soon be demolished. Giddy yet?

Update: Aw, seems like someone on the other end already caught wind of the slip-up and yanked it. So, can we take that as confirmation?

Is it me or url is down?

i want this phone, but i wish the d-pad was on the right side of the keyboard. or maybe just no d-pad and an even more spacious keyboard.

How much does a t-mobile equivalent of the simply everything plan cost?

If it's free on contract, then that's great pricing. Too bad about T-Mobile's 3G coverage though. Here on Long Island, NY, T-Mobile 3G is almost non-existent, mostly EDGE, and even that cuts out. I had them for almost a year and became tired of not being able to make phone calls in my apartment.

Which U.K carrier? When? How much? ...Deal or no Deal?

@likemyiphone

I guess I guess these specs from the official motorola site must be wrong.

NETWORKS
WCDMA 900/1700/2100, GSM 850/900/1800/1900, HSDPA 7.2 Mbps (Category 7/8), EDGE, GPRS Class 12, AGPS

The 850 next to GSM seems to conflict with your comment. Unless your referring to the processer. But I'm sure you don't beleive that every phone, or any phone for that matter, that is operating on AT$T's 3g network has a 850MHz processor. Either way you are quite wrong on this one.

To me having a physical keyboard is important. This phone has it, latest HTC phones do not. I currently own Android Dev Phone 1 (first HTC Android phone == T-Mobile G1). It was quite easy to make it working with AT&T http://cgi.ebay.com/%3D%3DUNLOCK-CODE-FOR-T-MOBILE-MOTOROLA-CLIQ%3D%3D_W0QQitemZ320424082577QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090914?IMSfp=TL090914166005r4614, but due to a frequency mismatch it does not support 3G. So, is it going to be the same with Cliq (if unlocked?) I'm thinking about buying one for my daughter. AT&T charges $30 per month per phone for data plan :(, but I'm not ready to leave it yet.
Do you think this offer http://cgi.ebay.com/%3D%3DUNLOCK-CODE-FOR-T-MOBILE-MOTOROLA-CLIQ%3D%3D_W0QQitemZ320424082577QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090914?IMSfp=TL090914166005r4614 is not a scam?
