Telstra Australia announces Galaxy Note 3 and Galaxy Gear pricing

Australian carriers have talked about the Galaxy Note 3 before, but it is only today that an official launch in the country is taking place, prompting carriers to come ahead with pricing and release information. Telstra has made an official announcement at its blog, announcing pricing details but not mentioning the release date; the carrier isn't putting out a bundle of the Note 3 and Gear, which is odd considering how the latter can't work on any device except the new phablet.

Here's the full pricing info:

The Samsung GALAXY Note 3 will be available on a range of Telstra plans including:
Consumer customers can purchase the Samsung GALAXY Note 3 on the $80 Every Day ConnectTM Plan with a $8 handset repayment per month (when you stay connected for 24 months), with $800 worth of included calls and MMS, unlimited SMS and 1.5GB of data, all to standard Australian numbers (and excluding use overseas) each month. Min cost over 24 months is $2,122 ($88/mth) and 2 minute standard call is $2.38, excess data $0.10/MB.
Business customers can purchase the Samsung GALAXY Note 3 on $80 Business Performance Plan with a $8 per month handset repayment for 24 months when you stay connected for 24 months, with $800 worth of included calls and MMS, unlimited SMS and 1.5GB of data, all to standard Australian numbers (excludes use overseas) each month. Min cost $2,122 ($88/mth) and 2 minute standard call is $2.38, excess data $0.10/MB.
Samsung GALAXY Note 3 will also be available to be purchased outright in Telstra stores for $912 RRP and GALAXY Gear will be available in Telstra stores for $369 RRP.
