A tad earlier than expected, the Samsung Gravity T456 has made its way to Rogers’ discount carrier, Fido. Pricing starts at $25 on a 2-year contract, or you can select one of the many $150 options (with monthly plan only, prepaid and phone only). The Samsung Gravity first hit Rogers back in February of 2009.…
Samsung Gravity Coming to Fido March 16th?
Looks like Fido is now advertising the Samsung Gravity as ‘coming soon’. From all accounts I’ve read so far it looks like ‘coming soon’ (when translated) means March 16th. The details? Well, you’re going to be looking at a measly $25 on a 2-year contract. Keep in mind, official launch dates and pricing have not…
Fido BlackBerry Curve 8520 Now On Sale at FutureShop for $29.99
Gotta love promotions on new hardware. It was only a few weeks ago that Fido launched the BlackBerry Curve 8520 for $50 on a 3-year contract. Not bad for a device that packs the typical BlackBerry full-QWERTY keyboard, 2MP camera, microSD expansion to 16GB, 3.2″ display, WiFi and more… Still, I kind of wondered how…
BlackBerry Curve 8520 Now Available on WirelessWave, Fido
Over the weekend I heard rumblings that the BlackBerry Curve 8520 was indeed coming to WirelessWave. Sure enough, as soon as I checked the WirelessWave site this morning, there it was. The BlackBerry 8520 available in both Black and Lavender. Pricing? Try $29.99 on a 3-year contract. This is interesting stuff, because we’ve been waiting…
Sony Ericsson ‘Naite’ Candybar Available for Consumption at Fido
Having popped up on the Sony Ericsson Canada website earlier in the week, I wasn’t surprised at all to notice the Naite is now live and very available on Fido for $25 on a 2-year contract or $150 contract-free. The Naite is a candybar featuring a 2.2″ QVGA 240×320 display, 2MP camera with 2.5 digital…
Motorola Renew+ Set For Launch on Fido Any Day Now
Although not available YET, look for the Motorola W388 Renew+ to be ready for prime time any day now. Fido has added the device to their website, even though the product is listed as ‘not in stock’… for now. When it does become official, look for it to go for the more than reasonable price…
Fido Launches Sony Ericsson T715 in Pink… Just in Time for Valentine’s Day
At the beginning of the month I mentioned that Fido would soon be carrying the Sony Ericsson T715… in Pink. Well, just in time for Valentine’s Day, it looks like the device has arrived. As predicted, the T715 is going for $50 on a 2-year contract, or $200 prepaid. No surprises there. The Sony Ericsson…
Samsung Flight and Motorola W388 Coming Soon to Rogers and Fido
While these aren’t the touchscreen beauties we’ve heard about, it’s always worth noting when a carrier has something new to offer. In this case, it looks like we have some proof (via a FutureShop flyer) of the Samsung Flight and the Motorola (NYSE: MOT) W388, coming to Rogers (NYSE: RCI) and Fido respectively. The Samsung…
Fido to Launch the Sony Ericsson T715 in Pink
Nothing too startling here, but I suppose we shouldn’t be that surprised as Valentine’s Day approaches. Fido, Rogers’ discount carrier is set to offer a Pink version of the Sony Ericsson T715. I wonder how many pink devices we’ll see before Valentine’s this year? Any guesses? The T715 features a 2.2″ display, 3.2MP camera with…
Fido Launches OS 4.6.1.320 for the BlackBerry Curve 8520
This one is kind of odd… but it is what it is. Fido has officially released OS 4.6.1.320 for the BlackBerry Curve 8520. Why is this odd? Well, because Fido hasn’t even officially launched the device yet, that’s why! I just took a look at the Fido.ca site, and there’s no trace of the 8520…
