Sony Ericsson Xperia Play retails for just $99.99 on Amazon pre-order

These are economically tough times, no doubt about it, with our country already maxing out her credit card only to ask for an extension – just how high must the ceiling go before the sky falls on everyone? In order to be a more prudent spender, surely you have done your part to skimp and cut corners where possible, and making do with what you have. For folks who are interested in the Verizon-bound Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, we have some good news for you – it will retail for just $99.99 when you place a pre-order for it on Amazon.

This is a steep $100 discount compared to the $199.99 asking price that Verizon asked for with their pre-order, coupled with a new 2-year contract, of course. Amazon’s offer is good only for those who are new subscribers to Verizon, while existing customers who want to make that upgrade will have to pony up $149.99.

Guess Amazon will be getting plenty of pre-orders flooding their way for the Xperia Play – maybe you might get this phone after purchasing Lady Gaga’s latest album from there as well?
