HTC One Comes to AT&T April 19th for $199.99

I’m torn now.. I like HTC products, my last few phones have been HTC, but one of them was a Samsung, the original Galaxy S. I want the Galaxy S 4 but I also want the HTC One I think. It’s not fair that two great phones are being released at about the same time. Starting today at 1pm CT you can pre-order the HTC One from AT&T. The 32gb version is $199.99 and the 64gb is $299.99, both of which of course need a two year agreement.  My contract with AT&T expired last November actually, so I’m up for renewal and considering that AT&T is the only company that can provide me with phone calls in my house I’m kind of stuck with them, which I guess isn’t a bad thing as I really haven’t had any issues with them.
