Telus to offer iPhone beginning Nov 5th
Telus Mobility has announced it will begin selling the Apple iPhone on Thursday, November 5th along with a range of 3G data plans.
The move will coincide with the launch of its HSPA+ high speed wireless network developed in conjunction with Bell Mobility.
Telus will be offering three versions: the Apple 8GB 3G iPhone, along with the 16GB and 32GB 3GS version in black or white.
Pricing for the 8GB, 16GB and 32GB models will be $600, $700 and $800 respectively with a $500 discount for consumers signing up for a three year plan. Data plan pricing was not announced but is expected to be comparable to data plan pricing currently offered by Rogers.
Along with the iPhone, Telus will be offering a number of new devices when it begins offering service on its new HSPA+ network, including the HTC Hero, LG New Chocolate, Blackberry Bold 9700 and Nokia E71.
Telus says the new wireless network which is based on the GSM standard – the same standard currently used by Rogers Wireless – will offer smartphone users theoretical peak download speeds of 21.6 mbps and 5.76 upload speeds and will run in parallel with its existing CDMA networks.
Vote with your money. Don’t buy into the g-man’s freedom trap.
omg…what a (*&^^%# waste of effort. i get more satisfaction pooping… so stupid 3 year term!!
No thanks Telus has the Worst cust service in Canada,once you get stuck with them you’re on your own.
I totally agree Telus should not be endorsed. Telus Has TERRIBLE I mean TERRIBLE customer service.. . BELL is WAY BETTER and smarter company and much nicer to deal with and has cheaper rates than telus. Way to GO BELL!
AS I SAID.. BELL HAS very good customer service and is a much better company to deal with
i wish Telus would just fold and go bankrupt.
You probably work for Bell
I just heard Bell and Telus iPhones wont work in Saskatchewan till like 2011 cuz SaskTel isnt up to par with their new network. That’s ridiculous. I routinely travel between Alberta and Saskatchewan everyday and have been with Bell for the last 2 years. But if I want an iPhone through Bell it will only work half the time. SaskTel needs to get out of the stone ages and step up their game.
