The iPhone 4 officially launches in Canada this Friday, July 30, 2010 – but Rogers and Fido seem to remain silent on pricing and eligibility.
A few speculations (not confirmed)
– Every Rogers customer with a smartphone, quick messaging device, or regular cellphone (purchased on contract before June 7, 2010) is eligible for a discount on a new iPhone 4
– iPhone 4 can be bought unlocked $659/$779
– Pricing will be $199/$299 for 16/32GB
Leaked Employee Training Manual:
[quote]Last year, Rogers provided a special iPhone upgrade that gave iPhone 3G owners the chance to upgrade to iPhone 3GS before their normal hardware upgrade eligibility. This year, we’re doing it again – and we’re expanding it to give millions more customers the chance to get an iPhone 4 at a discounted price! Every Rogers customer with a smartphone, quick messaging device, or regular cellphone (purchased on contract before June 7, 2010) is eligible for a discount on a new iPhone 4!
At time of launch, an eligibility tool will be introduced on Rogers.com that allows customers and sales representatives to validate their eligibility for exclusive offers and discounts based on their profile. The link (and all additional HUP information) will be available in Sales Central, so keep an eye out for it![endquote]
Either way… one thing is for sure… I’ll be in line for it on Friday!
