    Default American Express Marriott promo... is this a good deal??

    They are giving away a free Blackberry plus a $50 prepaid gift card when you stay at a Marriott hotel using your Amex business card. These include the Courtyard, Fairfield Inn, Springhill Suites, Residence Inn, and TownePlace suites. The other bonus is that you get the 5% Open savings on top of that too.

    The promo offer is good for stays between July 15th through September 15th. They say you get to choose the Blackberry but there's a lot they don't specify...

    ...do you have to activate the phone on a certain network or engage in a contract?
    ...is there a minimum stay duration necessary at the hotel to get this?
    ...I don't see any coupon code to mention when booking your room. How do you get this deal?

    I also received this in the mail. It requires a 2-year contract. Being that most cell phone providers offer a free or heavily discounted phone with a 2-year contract, this is by no means an impressive deal.
