Dealzmodo: T-Mobile Cellphones Going for Free at Wal-Mart

Fancy a BlackBerry Curve that earns you $50? At the moment, Wal-Mart is running an online deal that means the normally $149.99 phone will cost you just $49.99, and after rebates you'll actually be $50 in profit. The T-Mobile Wing and BlackBerry Pearl (normally $299.99 and $99) are also going for free, and will get you the same $50 rebate. There's a long list of other phones on similar deals from the MOTORIZR to the Samsung Blast: check out the Wal-Mart link. [Wal-Mart—Thanks Shiron]

Sprint's Samsung Instinct Now Costs $199 After Rebate

We previously heard that the Samsung Instinct was going to be $299 after rebate on Sprint—not too bad a price for what we said was the best Sprint and best Samsung phone ever. Turns out the iPhone 3G's $199 reveal sent Sprint back to their abacuses, which they used diligently to come up with an extra $100 mail-in rebate to equal the playing field with AT&T. The win for Sprint's deal is that current customers can supposedly buy the phone without renewing their two-year contract, which is pretty great for someone who plans on ditching carriers soon.

Disappearing $100 iPhone Store Credit: The Solution

Putting aside any complaints about whether or not Apple should have given people that $100 gift certificate, we've been seeing reports of people getting a message that there's $0 balance left on their cards when they go and actually try and use the money. And by reports, we include myself, Jason Chen, because I ran into this problem last night. After reading up on the Apple Support Forums, it seems the solution is to apply for ANOTHER gift card (link), generate a new number, and use that one. We're not sure whether Apple's giving out the same number to multiple people or what, but this seems to work.

The $100 iPhone Rebate: The What and the Why

Steve Jobs and Apple announced the $100 Store Credit "rebate" for all iPhone owners that were eager enough to buy an iPhone when it first came out. The early adopters had enough faith in the company to buy early, even though it cost a good $500/$600. It's a great gesture, in theory, but let's analyze why they did this. More »

Dealzmodo: TiVo Series 2 Free After Rebate
