Samsung Captivate Galaxy S for 1-cent: The catch

It seems that AmazonWireless are doing all they can to shift as many Galaxy S handsets as they can. Last week they offered the Samsung Vibrant for 1-cent, now they are doing the same offer for the Samsung Captivate. However, we have to point out that like all great deals, there is a catch.

According to Andrew Munchbanc from BGR, the $0.01 price only applies for those starting a new activation, those wishing to renew a two-year contract will have to pay $99. It does not matter what you do, it always seems as thought the loyal customers get the bum deal.

The one-cent offer is for a limited time only from August 15th – August 31, so not that long then. The Captivate is the AT&T version of the Galaxy S, but it is not considered the best.

The Galaxy S Android powered smartphone that is said to offer the best features has to be the Epic 4G from Sprint. This smartphone is considered the HTC EVO 4G with a slide-out keyboard; the release date is August 31st.

Will you take AmazonWireless up on this great offer?
