Whenever we’ve talked about Clearwire’s pricing plans, we always have been guessing or waiting on the inevitable pricing promotions to goose the sign-up rate. C’mon, we said. This is a new service, and people need more of an incentive to give it a try.
Today in our email inbox was the first of what will likely be many such salvos from Clearwire: A 50 percent off offer, which reduces an entry-level unlimited mobile plan to $22.50 a month, albeit for just the first three months. We haven’t checked out the Clearwire ordering page yet for exact details (hey it is birthday night around here) but here is the ad that was in the email. If you are interested, go to the Clear ordering site for more info.

Update: Clearwire has since made it a half-price plan for 6 months, not three, if you sign up by the end of september. Nothing like trying to goose those Q3 numbers, eh?
