TORONTO – On the same day as its biggest competitor rolled out its new HSPA network, Rogers beefed up its smart phone lineup to underscore its “network superiority”.
Just in time for the holiday season, Rogers said that it will offer the Nokia N86 smart phone which features an 8 megapixel camera and 8 GB of on-board memory to store music, movies and photos. The N86 will join the just-launched Rogers-exclusive LG Eve and the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 as part of five smart phones now available for under $100 on a three-year voice and data plan.
"Rogers customers can choose from a device lineup that is the envy of wireless companies around the world," said John Boynton, EVP of marketing, in the announcement. "We are proud to offer 30 HSPA-ready devices – more than ever before – more than our competitors combined. Only Rogers offers the right handset at any price point, including five incredible Webphones priced at under $100."
