Fido now taking BlackBerry 10 preorders
Fido hits the ground running today and is the next carrier to offer up preorders for BlackBerry 10. You can reserve a device now though their standard reservation system and will have to lay down a $40 deposit in the process. There's no fun "coming soon" page or any contest to go along with this one, but if you're on Fido and looking to grab a device then this is the way to go. Only a few days left until we find out all the details on BlackBerry 10 so stay tuned!
Reserve a BlackBerry 10 device at Fido

Woohoo more great news...

I am somewhat concerned that AT&T has not said more than their generic message a couple weeks ago. As you recall it took AT&T months to support the 9900...after almost everyone had been selling it for months. While I am not the best fan of AT&T, it makes a little more sense for me to stay with them, but delaying like they did the 9900 they will loose this customer. Good news for the other carriers though, looks like they are liking the attention from RIM.

long time coming but than again rogers dictates what they are allowed to do

Agreed. I sent these sucker MCs 3 different messages asking when they would start pre-ordering. And all they could say is "we can not confirm whether or not we will be carrying the Blackberry 10" or something of that nature. As professional as the response was, I thought it was dumb for a Canadian carrier to not carry a Canadian made phone.

At least Rogers isn't sitting on the bench like Telus.

I was with Fido. Its too bad Fido is affiliated with Rogers. It's a personal thing, especially if your credit rating is in jeopardy because of a scam.

why reserve online? you will be charged $35 upgrade fee. buy it outright or from someone else. RIM will provide enough z10.

Sheesh. They finally announced it, a long time after everyone else. I was concerned they weren't getting it till summer.
