| quote: | Here we go again. More iPhone 4 pricing rumours, however this time around it’s embedded in the Fido website source code. Here’s what Adam discovered from his digging (Chantelle Joy also found some goodies before too) from this page:
http://www.fido.ca/web/Fido.portal?_…eting-_-iphone
function checkEligibility() {
var Eligibility_urlStr =
“/web/com/fido/portlets/handset/iphoneRequest/upgradeEligibility.jsp”;
var ctn = jQuery.trim($(“#LightphNo1″).val()) +
jQuery.trim($(“#LightphNo2″).val()) + jQuery.trim($(“#LightphNo3″).val());
var postalCode = jQuery.trim($(“#LightphNo4″).val());
Eligibility_urlStr = Eligibility_urlStr + “?ctn=” + ctn + “&postalCode=” +
postalCode;
$.ajax({
url: Eligibility_urlStr,
cache: false,
type: “POST”,
dataType: “html”,
timeout: 300000,
success: function(data, textStatus){
data = jQuery.trim(data);
if(data == ‘H’) {
$(‘#checkContent’).css(‘display’,'none’);
$(‘#eligibleContent’).css(‘display’,'block’);
$(‘#eligibleMsg’).html(‘You are eligible to upgrade to an iPhone4 at the special
price of $199 for 16GB or $299 for 32GB, with a 3 year Fido Agreement.
FidoDollars applicable. Certain conditions apply.’);
}
else if(data == ‘M’) {
$(‘#checkContent’).css(‘display’,'none’);
$(‘#eligibleContent’).css(‘display’,'block’);
$(‘#eligibleMsg’).html(‘You are eligible to upgrade to an iPhone4 at $699 for
16GB or $799 for 32GB, with a 3 year Fido Agreement. FidoDollars applicable. In
addition, you will receive a $250 Fido Rewards bonus. Certain conditions
apply.’);
}
else if(data == ‘S’) {
$(‘#checkContent’).css(‘display’,'none’);
$(‘#eligibleContent’).css(‘display’,'block’);
$(‘#eligibleMsg’).html(‘You are eligible to upgrade to an iPhone4 at $699 for
16GB or $799 for 32GB, with a 3 year Fido Agreement. FidoDollars applicable. In
addition, you will receive a $450 Fido Rewards bonus. Certain conditions
apply.’);
}
else if(data == ‘null’) {
$(‘#checkContent’).css(‘display’,'none’);
$(‘#eligibleContent’).css(‘display’,'block’);
$(‘#eligibleMsg’).html(‘You are eligible to upgrade to an iPhone4 at $699 for
16GB or $799 for 32GB, with a 3 year Fido Agreement. FidoDollars applicable. In
addition, you will receive a $450 Fido Rewards bonus. Certain conditions
apply.’);
}
},
error: function(xhrRequest, textStatus, errorThrown){
//onError(xhrRequest, textStatus, errorThrown)
}
});
return false;
}
So, if this source code is correct once again, we get the following prices:
3 year contract pricing
iPhone 4 16GB: $199
iPhone 4 32GB: $299
Contract free pricing:
iPhone 4 16GB: $699
iPhone 4 32GB: $799
These unlocked prices differ from our unlocked iPhone 4 predictions and CBC’s reported pricing. The only price we have yet to confirm is the unlocked iPhone 4 pricing from the Apple Store. The 699/799 price point is the same as outright iPhone 3GS units during last year’s launch. |

Yeah that does not sound right at all, although apple does love to create hype for their producs by limiting avilability people will always want what they can't have. |

My Qoute
"You are eligible to upgrade to an iPhone 4 at $159 for the 16GB or $269 for 32GB, each with a 3 year term voice and data plan. See Legal Disclaimer below or in-store for full details and conditions.

Legal Disclaimer
Pricing and offers are subject to change without notice. Offers valid until stated expiry date or while quantities last, with new three-year term voice and data plan.
An Early Cancellation Fee (ECF) applies if, for any reason, your service is terminated prior to the end of the term of your Service Agreement (Service Agreement Term).
For Service Agreements entered into on or after June 30, 2010, applicable only to Residents of Québec: The ECF is the amount of the economic inducement (which may take the form of a discount, rebate or other benefit granted on the price of your Equipment), as stated in your Service Agreement (Economic Inducement), less the amount obtained by multiplying such Economic Inducement by a fraction representing the number of months elapsed in your Service Agreement Term as compared to the total number of months of your Service Agreement Term (plus applicable taxes). A Data Early Cancellation Fee (DECF) also applies if, for any reason, your wireless data service is terminated prior to the end of your plan’s commitment term (Data Term). The DECF is the additional Economic Inducement you received for subscribing to your wireless data service, less the amount obtained by multiplying such Economic Inducement by a fraction representing the number of months elapsed in your Data Term as compared to the total number of months of your Data Term (plus applicable taxes), and applies in addition to the ECF for termination of your Service Agreement. If you subscribe to a plan combining both voice and data services, both the ECF and the DECF apply, up to the total Economic Inducement. If there is no Economic Inducement stated in your Service Agreement, then the ECF is the lesser of $50 or 10% of the monthly service fees for the services that you have subscribed to on a Service Agreement Term and Data Term, as applicable, (plus applicable taxes), but not provided as of the termination date.
For all other Service Agreements: The ECF is the greater of (i) $100 or (ii) $20 per month remaining in the Service Agreement Term, to a maximum of $400 (plus applicable taxes), and applies to each line in the plan that is terminated. If you have subscribed to your Price Plan before February 1, 2007 and you continue or renew on the same Price Plan on 1-, 2- or 3-year term, the ECF will be equal to $20 times the number of months remaining in the term, to a maximum of $200 (plus applicable taxes). A DECF also applies if, for any reason, your wireless data service is terminated prior to the end of your Data Term. The DECF is the greater of (i) $25 or (ii) $5 per month remaining in the Data Term, to a maximum of $100 (plus applicable taxes), and applies in addition to the ECF for termination of your Service Agreement. If you subscribe to a plan combining both voice and data services, both the ECF and DECF apply." |
