Nokia Lumia 822 for Verizon FREE + FS @ Walmart Wireless

Walmart Wireless [walmart.com] online has the Nokia Lumia 822 FREE with FS for new accounts or upgrades (w/ new 2-year contract) on Verizon. The best price I've seen elsewhere is $49.

From the main page, look for the box labeled "Bowse In" and click "Windows Phones". Scroll down to the Lumia 822, which currently shows with no picture in the list.

The 822 comes in black, gray, and white. The white has a smooth glossy rear cover. the black has a matte semi-textured rear cover. I have not seen the gray.

This is a Windows 8 phone and it is available only on Verizon. Verizon stores recently got it in stock. I found it to be very responsive and fun to use. It has many nice features; for example, if you use maps a lot like I do, the Nokia maps it uses can be downloaded to the phone so you have maps even in places where there is no cell signal.
