Windows Phone 7 to Make a Killing on Black Friday. #wp7

In contrast to my massively dis-liked article concerning Windows Phone 7 and it’s supposed “flop” status, it appears for the most part that Black Friday will be a very good day for Microsoft and Windows Phone 7 alike. For instance, AT&T will be running a BOGO sale this Black Friday on all Windows Phone 7 hardware. Amazon is going even further, offering up Windows Phone 7 hardware for a mere $50. a pop.

It’s win-win for Microsoft. If people snap up these heavily discounted Windows Phone 7 devices, that means a whole lot of new users for Microsoft and more market share for WP7. On top of that, they don’t have to foot the bill for the discounts when all is said and done.

With as fierce as competition has been in the mobile sphere in 2010, this year’s Black Friday sales results regarding mobile platforms will be mighty interesting to see.
