"You don't have to wait until the day after Thanksgiving to get amazing products at great prices, which provide unmatched value when combined with all the benefits of The Belief Project from U.S. Cellular," said Edward Perez, vice president of marketing and sales operations for U.S. Cellular. "You can start bargain hunting before the busy weekend, avoid the crowds and get cool devices all week long."
The much-anticipated Samsung Galaxy Tab goes on sale in U.S. Cellular stores on Nov. 19. The mobile tablet will retail for $399 after a $100 mail-in rebate and two-year contract. The Galaxy Tab's large 7-inch touchscreen creates a web browsing experience that is more like a PC, and the vibrant graphics and 1GHz processor deliver games with dazzling clarity. The Galaxy Tab is loaded with Samsung's Media Hub that optimizes movies and TV shows to fit the brilliant display and can also be a convenient e-reader with free downloadable applications from Kindle and Nook. It's the perfect gift for those craving a multimedia, messaging and music experience.
Launched in October, The Belief Project is an array of innovative initiatives like "no contract after the first" with upgrades to the newest phones at promotional prices every 18 months. Customers automatically get valuable rewards just for being a customer that can be used for even faster phone upgrades in as little as 10 months. Rewards can also be used to get additional lines, phones, accessories, and ringtones.
The Belief Project also features a variety of value-packed monthly plans. For the person who emails and downloads more than they talk, the new Primary Plus Plan for $69.99 per month would make the ideal gift. It comes with 5GB of data, including unlimited text, picture and video messaging, free GPS Navigation, 450 voice minutes, and free incoming calls - nights, weekends and mobile-to-mobile.
