Yesterday we brought you a report that Dell was going to release the Venue Pro in two weeks for $149.99. We were pretty confident in those numbers as they were coming straight from Dell’s website.

We were wrong, or Dell was wrong, depending on how you look at it. Dell revamped the Venue Pro website this morning and emailed everyone on the wait list to let them know two things: the Venue Pro for T-Mobile is coming in a week, and that the 8 GB version will only run you $99 with a two-year contract.

The 16 GB version will cost $149.99, in line with our post from yesterday. The estimated ship date is the 9th, a full 5 days sooner than we anticipated.

For the curious, Dell pitches the Venue Pro in the following fashion: “With Office Mobile built in, operate on-the-go as seamlessly as you would at the office.” The Venue Pro is out for order, are you going to pick one up?
