Default AT&T One Cent Sale!

http://www.wireless.att.com/cell-ph...3OYZ!CIWM01-2-1

AT&T is currently running a one cent sale for any Windows Mobile phone. For your penny you can get a Samsung Jack, HP Glisten, LG Expo, or a HTC Tilt2. As AT&T has been rumored to be an important launch partner for Windows Phone 7, this could be a move to clear out inventory. Buyers will have to sign a two year contract as well as sign up for at least a $15 data package.

If I didn't know that WP7 was coming soon, I'd probably jump at this. Knowing that WP7 is around the corner (so to speak), I see this as pretty much a bad deal. The Tilt2 looks good, but not in comparison w/ what's coming.

Now if any of those could be upgraded to WP7, I'd consider it, but they don't really meet the hardware button limitation specs, let alone the speed/graphics specs.

It may be a good deal if you really like WM 6.x, but seeing that that platform is pretty much on life support now, I just can't justify renewing a contract for a device that isn't going to receive a lot of support.

Yep, pretty poor choice to go for one of these unless you are a business and even then, how much support will these phones get? Typical carrier though to try and offload obsolete stuff on unsuspecting customers. Run far away and wait for WP7!!
