AT&T Offers Free Messaging Phones for Your Valentine(s) and Apps That Help You Find Someone to Text '143'
For a Limited Time, Buy Any Smartphone and Get Four Quick Messaging Phones Free
Apps Available to Help Navigate the Land of Love, From Choosing a Wine for Dinner to Consulting with the Stars on Whether Love is Meant to Be
DALLAS, Feb. 4 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- They say, if you love someone, set them free. If you love several someones this Valentine's Day, AT&T helps you set them up with a free phone. Just in time for Feb. 14, AT&T* customers can buy any smartphone, like the new BlackBerry® Bold™ 9700 for $199 after mail-in rebate, and get any four Quick Messaging Devices, like the Pantech Impact for free after mail-in rebate. Voice plan and qualifying data plan is required on a two year service agreement for each phone.
While flowers, chocolates and cards may never go out of style, one of the fastest and most fashionable ways to say "I love you" is sealed with a text like "143" – the number 143 because "I" has one letter, "love" has four letters and the "you" has three.
Samsung Flight™
The next generation messaging device from Samsung, the Flight has a vertical sliding form factor, with full keyboard underneath. A textured design and subtle ridge on the back make it easy to text or use the touch screen with one hand. The main display features a unique user interface which provides one-touch access to functions like shortcuts, favorites and messaging. The Flight is now available in red and silver color options.
Pantech Impact™
Bringing more color choices to the quick messaging portfolio, Impact features an OLED touch screen that lets users send text messages, make calls, and control their music library without having to open the phone. Impact's screen features haptic controls which register each key-press with a soft, tactile buzz. A sideways flip of the phone reveals a full physical keyboard and a second display screen, allowing for a fuller experience when typing longer messages. Additionally, Impact's bright screen and tri-band 3G functionality, lets users manage social networks and explore the Internet with quickness and ease. Available in two colors, pink and blue.
