    Wife just bought a Note 4 on AT&T, and she got all kinds of neat spifs that add up. These were all from the Galaxy Store.
    * Six month subscription to the Wall Street Journal
    * One year Pocket Premium
    * One year Evernote Premium
    * Six months of Barron's
    * Six months of The Economist
    I think there were a few more extras that I can't think of.
    These are not make-or-break incentives, but they sure are nice extras. Just wonder if Blackberry will offer anything like this to entice us.

    Lol... you'll be fortunate if they actually hand you a Passport when you buy a Passport.

    These extras were not from AT&T, but from Samsung. BB World should kick in a few niceties to push the Passport.

    Samsung has a lot of partnerships it can leverage. I'm sure BBRY would if it could.

    AT&T does not give anything away for free. It is all about the money for them. Not customers. If it don't make dollars it don't make since. AT&T new saying

    Doesn't a spiff usually refer to a bonus that is paid to the salesperson for selling a particular product?

    I think these are free promotional subscriptions that content providers offer to users to get a few to subscribe later. I doubt the smartphone company or carrier pays for any of it so I imagine there is some reciprocal marketing going on.

    I got a 50gb lifetime free storage from Box by registering a new account on my Passport. I'm not sure if it's a promo or I fluke out.

    I remember that I got 50 GB of free storage from Box when I bought by Playbook a few years ago.

    You would trust your sensitive data on a "chinese cloud"?

    Exactly what I was about to say. I don't trust a totalitarian government to go through my stuff. They can give free unlimited storage and I still wouldn't care or allow my privacy to be violated.
