knowing how Bell does things in the past, there are only 3 ways of getting one:
1) activate a line with them.
2) go to a shady Bell dealer and pay the guy an extra $100 or so on top of the retail price.
3) know somebody

That is so fucked up

yah.. had to get my galaxy s through craigslist last time after many attempts to find a dealer who would sell to me. If you're lucky you might find someone inexperienced.. and even then if youre not with bell, you'll have to pay $75 for unlock code (which they might not even be willing to give to you unless u sign a plan) or wait a couple weeks for someone to write an unlock app.... i might just buy it unlocked from mobileDNA seeing as their price is gradually dropping... $693 now..

Deal or No Deal??

thats not a good plan. 500mb is not enough

i use close to 2gb/month



3 million sold in 55 days...damn.

hmm, i guess you could sign up for that 12 month plan and get the s2 for 260 and cancel after a month. works out to be cheaper than paying outright.

cancellation fee $240 + s2 $260 = $500 plus hst

They also had this cheaper $200 early bird promo that included all of the features I posted above a few weeks back.

they'll let u cancel a month after signing up? .. can someone confirm?

Do they charge you for cancelling that data as well? or is that part of the $240 cancellation?

Those numbers are staggering considering the phone was only official launched in Asia and Europe. No North American release to boost up those numbers.

Oh ya there a fee for cancelling data as well. Will have to find out how much that costs.
Its $20 x remaining months to a max of $400

Why wouldnt they? Can cancel anytime, as long as you pay the early termination fee
Posted via RS Mobile

i thought this 12 month thing was some special deal or sth. from what i've gathered, theres a flat $200 cancellation fee for data as well. so total cost will still come out to be around $700 :(

If it is then its not worth it.

Waiting for this phone!

if this doesnt come to rogers then ill prolly just wait till my contract expires in early 2012 and will be saying fuck you to 3 year contracts regardless

Rogers would be stupid to not pick up this phone. Look at all the hype for it

They're getting it. Just not as fast as Bell.

i read that they might get it closer to xmas like late oct early nov

Prices should be low by then for sure!

wow thats hella late..... 1-2 months after that quad-core phones will start coming out.....

dont take my word for it its just some comments being made by others

im thinking ill go for a 1-2 year plan and wait on the gs3 =]

Mobile dna review

Found on craigslist

I BOUGHT PHONE FROM MOBILE DNA AND WASN'T HAPPY THEY REQUIRE DEPOSIT OF $50(THAT I GLADLY PAID WITH PAYPAL)I FOR THEIR PHONES (WITH ALMOST NO WARRANTY) WELL THEY ARE IN DROP SHIPPING BUSINESS ,LOL ,WHEN I PICKED IT UP 1 WEEK LATER THE PRICE WAS HIGHER THEN WE AGREED ON. (THE ALSO TOLD ME BEFORE I PAID DEPOSIT THAT THEY CAN MEET ME IN BURNABY SINCE I WAS PAYING CASH ,BUT THEN THEY CHANGED THEIR MIND) SO THE" NOKIA 58**" 8GB THEY USED TO ADVERTISE, CAME WITH WRONG STYLE CHARGER -220 VOLTS ,WHEN I CALLED HIM I WAS TOLD IT SHOULD BE PACKAGED IN THE BOX ALONG WITH PHONE BUT INSTEAD I FOUND PHONE MANUAL IN ARABIC AND NO ENGLISH ONE ,I DON'T SPEAK ARABIC. (2 DAYS LATER 110V TO 220VPLUG ADOPTER GOT MAILED TO ME ) THEN 3 DAYS SINCE I GOT IT ,I REALIZED IT HAS 4GB INSTEAD 8GB MICRO SD ,WHEN I ASKED THEM TO SEND ME ANOTHER ONE, THE TOLD TO MAIL A WRONG ONE BACK TO THEM FIRST- LIKE ITS MY PROBLEM ,I HAVEN'T USED THIS PHONE FOR 2 MONTHS NOW STARTED USING IT AGAIN AND REALIZED BATTERY NOT HOLDING CHARGE .I DON'T THINK I SHOULD CALL THEM AGAIN ,THAT WOULD BE WASTE OF MY TIME

IF YOU DON'T WANT CRAPPY PHONE DON'T DEAL WITH RIK

LOL thanks for the heads up.

Hmm, thats kind of weird I got great service when I went in to pick up the Sg2

I paid and they told me it comes with a 220v charger and I can have a free adapter if I wanted but I didn't need one cause I have a few of those.

I guess jsut 1 guy with bad experience but then again I didn't deal with RIK
