If they are indeed getting a curve, it will be a 8300. No way is Fido getting a 8900 or anything higher end than the 8300

I hope you mean 8320. And I dont see why they wouldnt go up to the 8900. The 83xx series are being slowly phased out. Maybe the 8520? Maybe the pearl flip?

An access fee for the system access fee ?

the pearl flip I could see. I could also see the 8520 series since that will be the new entry level price point line

And given that the 5800 was "too upmarket" for Fido, I don't think we'll ever see N- or E-series on their product page

It's Air Access Fee. It's a surcharge to cover the operation and maintenance costs associated with the wear and tear of using air as a medium to carry sound wave.

When I called back in November of '08 to change my plan to the killer plan, I asked the rep if I could get get any phone at the 3 year agreement anytime during my contract. This was when the E71 was supposedly coming to Fido so I was waiting for it.

Anyways, he told me that I would be able to if I pay a $35 admin fee. I haven't used it yet tho. Would it be possible to use it for the 3GS?

No, I meant the 8300. 8320 is way too high end for Fido.

I'm hoping that you're wrong since I would like to get a Blackberry with WiFi and the 8300 doesn't have anything except for a camera. The 8320 at least has WiFi and the camera.

Any chance of Nokia E71 showing up on Fido?
