Fido’s 2009 roadmap leaked; $99 4GB iPhone 3G?
Okay, so one of our Fido ninjas hit us up with some exclusive snaps of what is reportedly the entire roadmap for the rest of 2009. We’re very far away from being able to confirm this information — it actually made us pop about 50 antacid tablets — but we’re going to do our jobs as best we can and report the goods. So here we go…
The most notable slide has to do with a 4GB iPhone 3G. While there is a huge disclaimer that the image isn’t the device itself, the slide depicts a 4GB iPhone model that will run for $99 and come with quad-band EDGE, tri-band HSDPA, a 2 megapixel shooter and, believe it or not, iChat video calling (oh hi, front-facing camera). You might recall all of that talk of a $99 iPhone at Walmart that we brought you a while ago — it looks like the timing was a bit off but it may actually happen. Moving on to the other handsets, we have the BlackBerry Curve 8320 for $50, Nokia E71 for $50 and Nokia E55 for $25, Sony Ericsson Z780i for $75 and a bunch of low-end goodness at great prices.
So, what do you think? Is this real, or is it like that total BS Rogers roadmap we saw at Christmas? Hit the jump for the rest of the slides and sound off in the comments.
its… possible for me… I’ll hunt this..
So the rumor still stands that the new iPhone will drop in the middle of July??? Only reason I ask is because Gen 1 iPhone users have contracts coming up on June 29th if they got it on day 1….Are they banking on them going month to month with Ma Bell until the new one comes out? June 29-July 17th is a few weeks, so they have to finish out at least one more month of service.
Fake. Just look at the specs for the Pearl 8100, they’re wrong!
Looks like its fake…
LIAR LIAR!!!
