I was going to order from apple.ca but don't really see much of a market for flipping so going to use my fido dollars and order from Fido. Btw Fido accounts is down until 3am pst so I assume pre-orders will start once the account page is back up from maintenance.

Eh, I bought 3.

It will come in handy for my car and stuff like that =P

Can someone explain why they didn't go with MicroUSB without the next ten replies being something about Apple trying to get millions of dollars?



Quote:

Because this connector and the previous 30-pin ADC transfer a lot more than pictures and power.
Micro-USB is fine for things like moving data (using your phone as a thumb-drive) and delivering a steady charge.
Where Micro-USB fails is doing HD at full motion (720/1080p @ 24+ FPS)
Also USB is generally not considered efficient for streaming audio. It works, yes, but USB makes no real-time guarantees. Meaning if they had just micro-USB, my car stereo might stutter while playing a song.
Most Android tablets side-step this issue by having a separate type D (mini) HDMI port on the phone. Since HDMI doesn't do power or data transfer, this means you need two connectors. A design that Apple probably doesn't want to consider.
There are other solutions out there, for example MHL would milk the necessary bandwidth out of the Micro-USB form-factor; but for all I know there are licensing restrictions preventing Apple from using it [cheaply].

^ too Euro

Here's the Canadian version:

Additional Lightning to 30-pin Adapter

“Your iPhone includes a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter for connecting 30-pin accessories to devices featuring the Lightning connector. Purchase this additional adapter to have a second adapter for your home or office.”


But it's kind of inconsistent... listed as CAD $45 for 'additional' ones here. When it's suppose to be $29 USD / $35 CAD in Accessories' page?

Just placed my order, only 16gb showed up.

Status: OPEN
Position in Line: 135

Edit:

So do you have to pay for the phone upon picking it up from the store or does Fido remove the money before shipping? And when and how do you apply the fido dollars? The last time I did an upgrade, Fido sent the phone to my house and put the amount to my monthly bill.
