AT&T announced its exclusivity on Nokia’s latest Lumia 920 Windows Phone 8 handset earlier this month, but it wasn’t clear for how long this deal would last. WPCentral reports that AT&T has six months of exclusivity on the Lumia 920, meaning that this particular model won’t be available on networks like Verizon or T-Mobile until May at the earliest.

However, the Lumia 820 isn’t exclusive to any US carriers, so a Lumia 920 variant for Verizon seems very unlikely at this stage. Still, Microsoft has scheduled a special event for October 29th where we’re expecting to hear more about devices and answers to the secrecy surrounding Windows Phone 8.
