Anyone else see the Fido Website?

I was checking my account online tonight, and I noticed 3 new things on there.

ZTE MF636 USB Modem, also called "White 3G USB Internet Stick" $0 on 2-year and $135 no contract
Nokia 1661 Phone, priced at $0 on a 2-year and $75 on prepaid / monthly
Sony Ericsson z780i priced at $100 on a 2-year and $400 on prepaid / monthly

After I logged out of my account they were gone and i cant seem to find the pages again I took screenshots though before I logged in to email it to a friend to use his fido dollars on that sony ericsson.






EDIT**

I think the website is being updated / stuff being added because there links were not working for these phones as they came back.

Also I cant access my account its down atm.

Isn't the Z780 a phone that Fido COULD'VE got, but Rogers pulled it because of Fido's rebranding? Gotta check the other thread...

Here it is

Looks like they are getting the website for the first wave of roll outs coming on the 14th. I can't wait! I'm in need of a bloody new phone and somewhere to waste all these fido dollars I have.

a 75$ backup nokia. with FM. I like that. Esp with the sim card costing 35$ alone.

Should sell many of those no contract.

Two of my co-workers called in for details about the white internet stick and both turned it down after hearing the ECF... 400$ ECF for the stick itself PLUS 100$ for the 6GB/30$ LOL

400$ for a stick they sell outright at 135$. If it works as good as the black stick I wouldnn't touch it with a 10 foot pole.
