How To Register More Than 3 Windows Phones For Development

Ask.

Really, all you need to do is log into the Windows Phone Dev Center, contact support and submit a ticket with the subject “Phone Unlock”.

 

Give some reason you need more than 3 devices. Here is a list of good sample reasons:

• I have more than 3 devices.
• I need to test on more than 3 devices.
• I want to wallpaper my house with Windows Phones.
• Each of my 8 cats writes Windows Phone apps and needs a device to continue doing so.

Really, anything approaching a reasonable justification will be accepted and you can get your phone limit increased.

  I'd be really interested in a way to get my hands on a WP8 device for a reasonable price.  Until then, I'm limited to the emulator or my every-day phone for WP7.

  Bryan, Keep an eye on your local T-Mobile store, they will do discount deals with no contract, then you can get a month to month 4G plan for as low as $30 a month.

  Why not just give us 100 devices to start with like Apple??
