HTC Ozone For $50 From Verizon »

Pricing for Windows 7 has finally been announced with a release date. So here’s how it goes:

Current Vista and XP users will have to pay $119.99 for the Home Premium Edition , $199.99 for the Professional Edition and $219.99 for the Ultimate upgrade. This isn’t for the full retail disk, this is just for the upgrade.

Now if you want the retail disk, releasing on October 22nd, the pricing changes a bit.

-$199.99 for Home Premium
-$299.99 for Professional Edition
-$319.99 for Ultimate

Starting tomorrow, June 26th, you can pre-order Home Premium and Professional upgrades for $49.99 and $99.99 but they are extremely limited so try to get them as soon as you can.

Participating PC manufacturers will be offering cheap or free upgrades from tomorrow on for customers who buy a PC with Vista or XP installed. Sony and HP have already announced they will offer free upgrades.

Engadget is offering a 100 free spots for an upgrade on their site. They’ll have a post at noon with details and the free upgrade offers. Check out their site here.
