Forget the iPhone. We are hearing AT&T is pulling out all the stops, along with their checkbook, and will be spending around $150 million on the Nokia Lumia 900 ad campaign. If recent reports from AdAge are accurate, AT&T will be going above and beyond what they did with the iPhone and will be spending plenty of green this month for Lumia marketing.

AT&T Nokia Lumia 900 on sale now
A couple of days ago Nicki Minaj was singing about it; now the AT&T Nokia Lumia 900 is finally on sale. The first Windows Phone to pack LTE, and the first Nokia in the US for some time that we’d recommend actually considering, the new Lumia is the largest of its family to-date and packs a competitive $99.99 price tag, assuming you’re content with a new, two-year agreement.
Nokia and Nicki Minaj light NYC for Lumia 900 debut
Nokia lit up New York City’s Time Square for a Lumia 900 extravaganza on Friday, turning to Nicki Minaj and the CGI specialists behind i-Robot for a music and light show in keeping with AT&T and Microsoft’s ambitions. The event – which followed the London deadmau5 event for the Lumia 800 in November last year – paired a remix of Starships with a 200ft high video show and live dancers, a costly spectacle that will demand more than a few $99.99 AT&T Lumia 900 sales if Nokia, Microsoft and the carrier want to make their money back.
Nokia Lumia 900 brings out the Windows Phone lovers
Smartphone seekers brand-loyal to the Microsoft-made mobile operating system Windows Phone will be glad to know that the Nokia Lumia 900 is out now - and reviewers are loving it. Everyone including our own Michael Crider seems to be lauding Nokia's effort in this device which takes their well-received Windows Phone lineup thus far and boosts it to what might be the perfect chassis size with a 4.3-inch display inside.

Analysts predict tepid Nokia Lumia 900 sales
While Nokia and AT&T are trying everything in their power to put the Lumia 900 in the minds of consumers, analysts are predicting lacklustre sales figures. Critics cite the fact that while Nokia is a known brand in the United States, it doesn’t carry the same weight as Apple or Samsung. Whatever comes of the Lumia 900 launch, it will set the stage for Nokia’s success or failure in the US smartphone market.

Nokia Lumia 900 vs iPhone 4: The $99 Showdown
Big news today is Nokia’s US re-entry, with the Lumia 900 scoring some cautiously congratulatory reviews – ours included – at an ambitious AT&T price point and the heft of Microsoft behind it. Of course, the LTE Lumia goes up against a serious smartphone heavyweight, with Apple’s iPhone 4 dominating the same $99 niche. It may be the last-gen model, but the iPhone 4 is still a mighty popular device and the iOS and App Store combination makes for a strong argument. Strap on your smartphone helmets, people, it’s time to get competitive.

Nokia Lumia 900 review
Over the last year Nokia’s had something of a tumultuous time in the mobile industry. While still a power to be feared in the featurephone market, their lack of presence in the smartphone market has been keenly felt. With T-Mobile’s Lumia 710 as a prelude, the Finnish giant makes a return in earnest with the Lumia 900 on AT&T’s LTE network. Its features and design are immediately attractive, but perhaps more so is the price: just $99 on-contract, or free for new AT&T customers. Can a combination of great design, high-end features and price make a bold statement for Nokia? Let’s find out.
