Cell Phone Deals

From time to time, the product team at Wirefly manages to get their hands on a cell phone model at a price that surprises even us. Since, in these cases, our cost is lowered, we’re generally able to construct a deal that’s really worth highlighting.

This week, we think the Sprint Upstage M620 is one of those deals. It’s not one of our free cell phones, but it’s a great dual-sided MP3 phone, with one side dedicated to music and the other housing the more traditional cell phone features; the Upstage also works perfectly with Sprint’s downloadable music service, and really can act as an iPod replacement.

If you’re interested, PC World offers a strong review of this phone from May of this year.

Thanks to the special price we negotiated with Samsung, Wirefly is offering the Sprint Upstage for free right now, after a big instant discount and a $50 mail-in rebate. In addition to that, though, you’ll have the opportunity to make an extra $50 in cash back and pick up a free stereo Bluetooth headset.

Once in a while we’ll call attention to a Wirefly deal in which we think our readers might be particularly interested. Today’s 24-hour sale drops the price on what just might be the hottest BlackBerry of the summer.

Today only, Wirefly is dropping the price on the new BlackBerry Curve to $99.99 with an instant discount (i.e., no mail-in rebates required) for new AT&T customers. That’s the lowest price available on BlackBerry’s newest PDA when purchased with a 2-year cell phone plan.

Sorry, current Cingular customers don’t qualify for “new AT&T customer” pricing, but customers extending their contracts can still qualify for an upgrade discount on the BlackBerry 8300 Curve.

(Editor’s note: this 24-hour deal has expired. Check Wirefly.com for the latest prices on the BlackBerry 8300 Curve.)
