Marriott is offering a free BlackBerry 7290 when you book a room on the Marriott hotel site. You pay $150 bucks up front, commit to a 2 year data and voice plan from Cingular that will run you around $75 a month, and pay a $36 activation fee.
You will receive a $150 mail-in rebate with your BlackBerry 7290 which you should get a check for after about 6 weeks. The 7290 costs about $350 normally so this is a pretty good deal if you were on the market for a BlackBerry anyway and want to use Cingular.
The voice and data plan includes…
- Unlimited email
- 450 anytime minutes
- 5000 night and weekend minutes
- Unlimited mobile-to-mobile calling
