Pre-orders for HTC Windows Phone 8X on AT&T begin tomorrow, according to Best Buy ad

A prior rumor had pegged tomorrow, October 21st, as the first day AT&T would begin accepting pre-orders for their Windows Phone 8 lineup. Well apparently the rumor was spot on thanks to a small inclusion in Best Buy's weekly advertisement.

Mobility Digest spotted the HTC Windows Phone 8X being advertised alongside several Windows 8 machines on the paper's front page, with the following message:

Pre-order in store or online today
Windows Phone 8X by HTC

Live tiles keep you connected with the people, apps and stuff you love. Vivid display and quality sound with Beats Audio™. While the ad never specifically says the device runs on AT&T, Mobility Digest astutely pointed out the presence of those orange live tiles which are used for all AT&T-branded apps. We are a little surprised the Nokia Lumia 920 and 820 weren't featured as well, but Microsoft did tell us HTC's Windows Phones would be front and center in their own promotions.


We also still don't know how much the devices are going to cost which makes it a bit silly to pre-order. Hey, as long as you have the option, right?
