iPad Air Price Discounted by $200 for AT&T Customers With New 2-Year Agreement
The iPad Air price will be discounted by $200 for those purchasing the device with a new two-year agreement through AT&T.
The carrier will also offer a $100 discount on both the iPad Air and iPad Mini for those adding a new line to their account with either device. The $200 discount combines two deals with $100 being credited to a user's bill and the other being taken off when upfront when the tablet is purchased. Customers must remain with AT&T for 45 days to receive the credit.
The $100 bill credit is also available to customers who bring their own device. These purchases can be made at AT&T retail locations or through the company's online store.

Apple might have broken records this past holiday quarter as iPad sales reportedly exceeded 20 million.
The company recently announced its quarterly earnings on Monday, Jan. 27 and analysts are weighed in on iPad and iPhone sales and stated that the tablet could have sold anywhere from 21 million to 28 million units.
The iPad sales were surveyed by Elmer-Dewitt with 45 different analysts including 28 professionals and 17 amateurs.
"The average estimate among all the analysts is 25 million iPads, up 10% from the same quarter last year," wrote the company.
Other statistics taken during the holiday season mirror what these analysts are reporting. The iPad accounted for 18 percent of Target's Black Friday sales and was a top seller at Walmart. The App store also saw an expanded interest in iPad products with revenue increasing by 56 percent and total number of downloads growing by 53 percent.
iPad sales for next year could be even more impressive as the company is expected to release a 12.9-inch model.
