I'm probably not flipping this time around.

The guy who used to buy all the Apple stuff I could get on day1 told me that they aren't buying anything because China Mobile and Unicom hasn't gotten any nano SIM made. And you can't cut regular sim/micro sim into nano.

Should be fine as long as they can find the record of your purchase.. e.g. Apple ID or receipt..

sign on to "my rogers" and choose "device reservation". choose which store you want to pick it up at and they will send you an email when it will be avail. there's a $40 refundable fee when you do reserve.

my question is for pre-ordering through apple. do you have to pay for the phone right away or can do you a carrier upgrade through apple? anyone know?

Rogers and Fido customers can reserve the iPhone 5 by accessing their online MyAccount. There will be a $40 deposit required, and do note there’s no guarantee you’ll get a unit by launch day. It just holds a phone for you as Rogers/Fido receives them. Getting ahold of ample stock from Apple has been the barrier for Rogers in selling the iPhone, as formerly noted by their CEO Nadir Mohammed.

I believe they only sell unlocked and full amount right away in Canada.

in the states they can sign contract/upgrade..

uhh ... sorry if this is a noob, question, for Fido Phone Reservation ... does it matter if I wake up at 7am on the dot to reserve it or I can do it at like noon? Do they reserve on a first come first serve basis?
I wonder how many they will have in-stock ... I still need to call Fido about my upgrade too ...

try reserving at 3-4AM tonight... according to the sources, the reservation system will be online at 6-7AM EST.

I don't think they'll make it available at different times depending on your location.

Well if you really want one on or very close to the launch date than I would stay up and try to reserve one early or else you could be waiting because i've read that Rogers/Fido themselves are worried their supply and how many phones they'll have on launch.

scoobyej20 09-13-2012 10:17 PM

11:17PM.. 43 minutes to go people!! :fullofwin:
