Rogers/Fido Post Internal iPhone 4 Coming Soon Notice

The Apple press conference on Friday July 16, among addressing the iPhone 4 reception issue, also announced the July 30, 2010 release date for the iPhone 4 in Canada.

Bell was the first Canadian wireless carrier to get their iPhone 4 July 30 splash page up which indicated that Bell was going to be carrying the iPhone 4 (obviously).

Now, Rogers/Fido have posted internal notices that the iPhone 4 is coming soon. The notices indicate that more information will be released when available and in the meantime, to refer customers to the Fido or Rogers iPhone pages.

I particularly like the last line in each posting:

“Until you receive official information, please do not speculate with customers on launch dates or pricing.”

I guess it is not good enough for Rogers/Fido to tell customers the iPhone 4 is coming July 30, 2010, even when Apple CEO Steve Jobs says so.

    If there are no preorders, can we atleast order online on July 30th from apple.ca? How long will that take to ship?

    Yes, I believe so. Unlocked and locked ones should be available on launch. It would be stupid if they weren't.

  • JonnyDub

    Apple.ca = only unlocked iPhones
    Apple Store = Locked or Unlocked
    Rogers/Bell/Telus = Locked

    I have never purchased an iPhone directly from the Apple store before. Can someone tell me the process of this? I am on Fido, and they do have an advantage with Fido Dollars, which I hope to use towards the iPhone 4 in order to get a discount. Can I do this at the Apple store as well? Or only at the Fido store?

    Step 1. Walk in.
    Step 2. Ask for iPhone.
    Step 3. Pay.
    Step 4. Leave.

    I don't think Apple takes anything other than Canadian Dollars

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    They don't accept foreign currency.

    Credit, debit, and Canadian cash is fine.

  • Artie

    LOL yeah make a mad dash, dont get trampled, good luck

  • CHILL OUT PEOPLE

    SERIOSULY PEOPLE, YOU JUST A REALLY GETTING STUPID…

    WOW ROGERS HASN’T ANNOUNCED ANYTHING ON THE IPHONE YET, BUT HAVE YOU TAKEN A LOOK ON THE APPLE WEBSITE LATLEY???

    http://store.apple.com/ca/browse/home/shop_iphone/family/iphone?mco=OTY2ODA2OQ

    TAKE A LOOK, APPLE HASN’T EVEN PUT ANYTHING ON THEIR WEBSITE AND IT’S THEIR FREEKIN PRODUCT…

    get your heads outta your asses and calm the f**k down, you’ll find out things when you need to know them.

    and for those people expecting to upgrade after having your phone for less than 2 years, your prolly gonna be real dissapointed, so suck it up and deal with it.

  • bcp

    i wonder what time the mall doors will ACTUALLY open and if the apple store will open earlier that day… hmmm..

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    It will open earlier.

  • RAAP

    I believe your able to use your fido dollars at an Apple store.

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    That is correct.

  • Reheat

    Any news on a 6gb plan?

  • websnap

    They are getting it on launch, but no pre-orders. I got that much from the sales rep.

  • websnap

    I spoke to a guy @ a local Rogers here in Winnipeg on monday and he specifically said there will be no Pre-orders. Was there a pre-order scenario for the 3GS?

    Will this whole antenna issue for the Iphone 4 be fixed before they release their product in Canada?

  • Seff

    Does that mean I can renew my Fido plan at the apple store also?

  • http://www.iphoneincanada.ca/ Ex

    Correct.

  • Bigdoug

    Respectfully

    So that you're not “JUST A REALLY GETTING STUPID…” and rather than looking so foolish yourself. Check your spelling and grammer before you post something. It's worth the extra few moments.

    Best regards,

  • Tamoodyong

    I am a Rogers customers for so many years and I dont get shit from them. I am praying that Rogers dont get iphone 4 so Bell and Telus beat Rogers ass.

  • iphone4

    white ones not coming out on launch day its going to release in a few months. I would stick with the black one

  • iphone4

    Whites not coming out until Christmas time.

  • iphone4

    Hey just to let you two know. People have reported that their iPhone 4's (out of the new batch) no longer have this issue because they tried to recreate it and the bars would not go down.

    I just talked to a guy at the Londonderry Telus store here in Edmonton and he said that due to limited supplies stores are only going to have 15 handsets opening day. Is anyone else hearing anything like this? That sounds ridiculous to me.

  • Davie

    Any suggestions about where the best place is to get an iphone4 on launch day in London, Ontario? No apple store here. I phoned Bell and they said there are no guarantees that they will have the phone on July 30.
