Although details are still emerging, it seems as though the news of upgrade pricing for Rogers customers, who have the iPhone 3G is first announcing it's pricing via theRogersHelps twitter account.
Honestly I was not expecting discounts this deep, and have to commend Rogers for creating this offer (still unknown whether I qualify for the full discount or not) but I have to say that the way they handled this was lacklustre and should be used as an example of how not to launch a product in marketing and business schools around the world!
Like Ryan Seacrest, on the final episode of American Idol, there were lengthy pauses between info blasts, but in the end, the news broke this way...
Ready iPhone fans? Here’s the news you’ve been waiting for.
Rogers is happy to announce big savings for our existing iPhone customers looking to upgrade to 3G S.
