I just updated the No-Contract Phones post. Best Buy will have quite a few on sale. Expect more additions as more ads get posted. These phones make great media players for those of you looking to upgrade your older Galaxy Players and iPod touches.

I've splint them into three categories:

No-Contract Android Phones 1GB / 8GB
No Contract Windows Phones
No-Contract Android Phones 0.5GB / 4GB

Personally, I'd avoid phones in the third category. They just don't have the hardware to keep pace with app upgrades. Too soon, you'll be replacing your device because of app incompatibility. As to Android vs Windows, it's matter of personal preference.

So far, the clear winner is the LG Volt; if you can snag one. Expect more offerings in the days to come as the rest of the stores release their ads.
