AT&T: Buy Two Windows Phone 8 Smartphones, Get $100 Off One

If you're a fan of AT&T and an aspiring fan of the Windows Phone platform, now might be an ideal time for you to take the plunge.

According to a memo leaked over to WPCentral, the wireless carrier is running a new promotion that takes $100 off the cost of any Windows Phone 8 devices, but with one important caveat: You have to buy two smartphones in order to get the discount.

So, for example, presuming that you (and your family, or you and a loved one, etc.) are game for two Nokia Lumia 920 smartphones ? and a two year-contract ? then the $100 discount will automatically appear in your online shopping cart during your purchasing. If you're buying two different Windows Phone 8 devices, then whichever smartphone happens to be priced lower will receive the $100 discount.

The deal applies to both new activations and upgrades, and customers will still be able to take advantage of AT&T's 14-day return policy for smartphones ordered through the promotion.

However, it doesn't appear as if AT&T's $100-off promotion is stacking with another special giveaway that the carrier is running, exclusive to those purchasing Lumia 920 smartphones. For those who just purchase a single Lumia 920 (with the requisite two-year contract), AT&T will wave the cost of the device's Wireless Charging Plate ? a $49 savings that isn't quite as nice a discount as what amounts to a second free Lumia 920, but isn't something to scoff at if you have no need for a second smartphone.

Unfortunately (for shrewd shoppers), AT&T won't let you have any free Wireless Charging Plates if you opt for its $100-discount deal. Both promotions are scheduled to run now through February 21 ? plenty of time to find someone else to pawn an extra Windows Phone 8 smartphone off on.
