They have been giving them away for free. I have one that will probably end up on ebay soon. £65 to test my own application on my own device? Fvck you, M$.

480 x 800 on a 5.5" screen? That would surely look awful!
And higher resolutions are forbidden for WP 7.x by Microsoft.

Point bolded. Some average cellphone buyer might be tempted for example with Nokias deal to be at least the first one to get EA games to their cellphones.

That could work but people would just be like thanks you can keep the Lumia.

Yes... and the last ones to get everything else.. or not get most apps that people want at ALL. Microsoft's ecosystem is still very small and growing very, very slowly. Very slowly. Very. I doubt that is an attractive proposition to the average cellphone buyer despite EA.
