Fido Q1 2009 Launches

Emphasis mine.

Pictures have surfaced of some of the upcoming devices that we can expect at Fido. A couple of them we already knew about, such as the Samsung f266 and the Sony Ericsson T303. The only part of this leaked image that is questionable is that launches is incorrectly spelled as “Upcoming launchs”… however, everything else looks to be solid. As we noted earlier

the Samsung F266 is slider with a 2 megapixel camera stores up to 8 GB, built-in MP3 player and will be available on a 2-year plan for $25 or outright for $150.

The Sony Ericsson T303 will be available early March for a whopping $10 on a 2-year plan or $110 outright. This is a slider phone with a stellar 1.3 megapixel camera (no flash). Weighs in at 96 grams a display of 1.8 inches, MP3 player, FM radio and speakerphone.

Some new devices are the LG TE365 (a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard) that will be launching at the end of March for $50 on a 2-year plan or $175 outright.

The Motorola W233, otherwise known as the “Renew”, made big news at CES by becoming the first mobile phone that’s carbon free and 100% made of recycled water bottles. This basic entry device will be released April 22nd for $70 outright or $10 on a 2-year plan. Good price for this phone.

hmm interesting, i was hoping the samsung pixon would come out in feb-march, i guess i'll hafta wait til april/may

More like May/June, if they're getting it. Sounds like a good summer launch to me.

Wow, what a bunch of junk.

Don't like fido's new low budget market.

I KNOW! wtf. the website and logo is hideous. when i went to their website i thought i had put in the wrong address that took me to one of those cheapass scam websites. i hate rogers for doing this to my provider.

what difference does it make if fido and rogers offers the same plans with one small change...
unlimited incoming vs unlimited network(to many..not us smarter of the higher)

well i was comparing plans btw rogers and fido and at this moment rogers' plans offer more benefit to me in terms of pricing. some people at rogers pay the same price i pay for my plan but get more features. before fido changed i thought they had better plans and i regret not being fast enough get the benefits. now i pay more but get less. whatever i don't even care that much, but i'm hoping fido will soon have better blackberry options/data/value packs. *cross fingers*

^It's all about retentions. Be with any one carrier long enough then you have bargaining power.
