Nokia E71 coming to Fido in Canada?

Don’t know what should we think about this, but apparently Canadians will be able to grab the full QWERTY keyboard equipped Nokia (NYSE: NOK) E71 exclusively through Fido. Sure, there are options to grab the device unlocked, but if you want to instantly save on purchase and grab the E71 through mobile operator, you’ll have to sign-up for Fido’s service. That’s kinda strange when we know Fido is Rogers (NYSE: RCI) Wireless’ owned MVNO and is primarily geared towards the younger generation…
The rumor is coming from MobilySyrup’s Nokia insider, FYI.

I thought Nokia’s new strategy was to forget the carriers and sell directly to consumers:
