How can an open-source developer get a free Windows Phone device for testing purposes?

Question

Microsoft

Hello, I am developing javascript plugins, the audience is growing. Along with it, the need for testing in browsers of different devices is growing. iPhone with its safari I have, Google Nexus with its chrome too. But there is no lumia with its mobile IE. And people start asking.
I thought maybe I should write a letter to Microsoft or Nokia and find out if there are any prospects in this regard, but alas, just writing a letter there is simply impossible, there is neither a form nor the necessary email address.
Maybe someone knows how you can write them a letter and get an answer to it? Or maybe you heard about some promotions from them for open-source projects? Or at the very least discounts?

Denis, hi!
We have a fairly large blog on Habré, as well as a large number of employees to write to.
I understand that it is difficult for a person with an iPhone to afford a Windows Phone, so we will try to help you. ;)
Send me an email - aniv [at] microsoft.com

Answer 2

Give me a hammer and I'll make money with it? =) The concept of open-source is rather vague. Why do you think that a new phone shines for you?

Answer 3

such a problem to buy a used lumiya 520?
