Update, 12-2 7:30 PM Pacific: Moto Maker has been slammed all day, so Motorola is planning on offering the Moto X discount again on both Wednesday and next Friday.
--
Update, 12-2 9 AM Pacific: The deal is live, and discounted Moto X phones for all carriers are now available. You can get contract-free 16GB models in the Moto Maker website for $349.99, or upgrade to 32GB for $399.99. Developer editions for Verizon and GSM networks are $399.99 in the Motorola Store.
The site is struggling under a massive load of users, and is
periodically showing the "coming soon" boilerplate in Moto Maker. Keep
trying if you want that price. The Developer Editions don't seem to be
affected. Hurry: supplies are limited, and these phone will go quickly.

If you've been shopping for a new phone, Cyber Monday might be your
chance to save some real cash. Motorola has just announced that it will
be offering $150 discounts on all off-contract Moto X purchases that
day. That includes the carrier-locked phones and the developer editions.
That means the carrier versions of the phone from Moto Maker will
only cost $349 (usually $499) and the developer editions (usually $549)
will work out to $399. Motorola hasn't provided any specific details
about how the promotion will work, but it did point out that supplies
will be limited. With a hefty discount like that, it's more than likely
the online store will be cleared out before the day is through. Because
it's the Moto X, we're probably looking at a US-only deal.
Motorola will provide more information as the day approaches
(December 2nd, by the way). For now, consume your holiday bird and bide
your time.
