We've already told you about Amazon Wireless' cell phone deals for the holiday shopping brouhaha, but now AT&T is getting in on the act as well. From Black Friday through Cyber Monday, the carrier will be offering a deal a day for many if its phones. Here's what you'll see.

  • November 26: AT&T says it will offer "some of the best prices ever" on its "most popular" touch-screen devices. At this point, we don't exactly know which handsets that includes, so we'll have to wait and see.

  • November 27: For 24 hours, a selection of the carrier's refurbished devices, including the RIM BlackBerry Torch, will be available for just one penny with a service contract.

  • November 28: Four AT&T messaging handsets, the Pantech Link, the LG Vu Plus, the Sharp FX, and the Pantech Pursuit for free. Keep in mind that you'll need an unlimited messaging plan or a $20 combination of messaging and data plan.

  • November 29: In what is perhaps the carrier's best deal, AT&T will offers a few smartphones for just one penny if you sign a new contract. The devices list, which will rotate every three hours, will include the HTC Aria, the RIM BlackBerry Curve 3G, the Motorola Flipout, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, and the Motorola Bravo.
