Get a Windows Phone 7 on AT&T + Xbox 360 Game for Only $0.01

If you haven’t heard, Microsoft is offering a free Xbox 360 game (up to a $60 value) when you purchase a Windows Phone 7. What you might not have heard is that you can get a Windows Phone 7 for only one penny! Come again? That’s right, $0.01!!!

Samsung Focus from wirefly.com. Then I went on ebay and bought a 32gb micro sd card for 55.00. 40 gigs of memory and Im good to go.

Extremely unfair to us early adopters, Microsoft. Just saying.

Max Power4876d ago

That is the price of getting it before most people.

motherboop4876d ago

actually, I wouldn't expect such practice for a phone that has barely been available for 5 weeks. Adopters from last month should not have been left out, no excuses.

Kurylo3d4876d ago (Edited 4876d ago )

motherboop.. your just a hater... Who are you to dictate such things. They do this stuff to get more people interested in their phone.. not to get people who already have the phone interested some more.

where is your logic? Thats like saying put a commercial on television and spend the money doing it... so that people who already bought the product could feel good that they have the product.

Elven64876d ago

This seems to be more of a network/retailer promotion as were the others, but that's not to say Microsoft is left out.

It should be expected that such phone deals would occur around this time of the year. Even Android had some crazy deals recently through Amazon. Things like 2 for $50 and such.

stiggs4876d ago (Edited 4876d ago )

It really sucks (for me) to see all these great offers after having paid $230 (phone + upgrade fee/tax) for a Windows 7 phone a little more than a montha ago. The sales associate even tried to get me to pay the full $400 price because he said that I "wasn't eligible for an upgrade".
Windows Phone 7 is terrific and I don't regret the purchase but it stings a bit to find out that the early adopters are getting left out of these deals.

SeNiLesBack4876d ago

I paid about the same day 1 and do regret it since I would have paid that much for any other smartphone but as you said, it does sting a bit. I did get my wife a deal when it dropped to $50, but a week later it dropped to a penny, now this, LOL.

The wife is addicted to Flowers and loving her new Focus, so its all good.

Why would I switch from the awesome Motorola Droid 2 to wp7? so they can abandon it like kin?

stiggs4876d ago (Edited 4876d ago )

Perhaps if you tried a Windows 7 phone then you wouldn't be so fast with the snarky and uninformed comments. I've shown my Samsung Focus Windows 7 phone to a lot of people (iPhone & Android users) and ALL of them have been very impressed with the device. Many have even admitted to having a bit of tech envy and are seriously considering switching to the Windows 7 platform. Sorry to burst your bubble but Microsoft is in the for the long haul.

user83971444876d ago

Well I have tried it at AT&T and I can do everything in my Droid and way more. With Thousands of free apps why would I even bother with WP7.

Kran4876d ago

you realised there are two seperate offices for both items.

One for Kinect and one for WP7

stiggs4876d ago (Edited 4876d ago )

No one said that you have to switch to a Windows 7 phone. You're obviously happy (a bit too happy...how's that Koolaid?) with you Android phone. You should have mentioned in your first post that you "tried" a Windows Phone 7 in a store. That type of in-depth analysis certainly qualifies you to make an impartial judgement on the device. Its funny though, I would think that someone like yourself with so much experience using a Windows Phone would know that there area already about 1000 free apps in the marketplace with more added each day.

Oh yeah! I'm so going to get that!
Said nobody ever.

"Oh yeah! I'm so going to get that!
Said nobody ever."

I don't know if the blind hate is directed towards Microsoft or Angry Birds, but you DO realize that it's going to get millions of downloads, right?

Not saying I'm a fan, just saying that because we don't like something doesn't mean it's going to fail.

a_bro4008d ago

i think he's directing that hate towards the game itself, not microsoft.

it has to do with the game's casual focus, and how investors are stating that games like these are the future, even though they suck.
