Yes in Canada, Fido has added two new mobile handsets to its mid-range collection, firstly the Nokia 6555 clamshell mobile handset with QVGA display, stereo Bluetooth, microSD expansion slot, 1.3 megapixel camera, and comes complete with Fido supplied 1GB microSD card in the box.
And the other mobile Fido added is the Samsung SGH-E747, a slider style handset with a 2 megapixel camera, although the Nokia has a better battery life than the Samsung as the Nokia has a 1020 mAh while the Samsung has an 880 mAh.
Fido has both handsets available on a 3 year agreement for $75.00 or on a 2 year agreement for $125.00, and lastly for either handset without any agreement you can get them for $300.00.

I just bought the SGH-E747 to replace my old, old ericcson. so far it has been good. solid feel, beautiful finish and a good assorment of features. Cross my fingers it will stand the test of time.
got myself the sgh-e747, its horrible. Go for a sony ericson.
Samsung SGH e747 is not a very good phone.
The camera is so bad, even though they claim 2MP.
If you like taking pictures with your cell phone, do not buy this camera.
Buy something else.
I have a Samsung e747, Its a great phone, after about 3 months, the whole right side of the phones buttons would not work ( pretty much split the phone in half, not physically though).
Besides that it is a great phone, that is unless you DO NOT want a Data/Web Browsing Plan, as Fido, being the @$$Hats that they are, made the only 2 features that use GPRS/EDGE/3G/Internet permanently binded to the Left and right soft keys.
This is a problem because whenever you slide the phone up, or you put it in your pocket, it is likely to start up the browser, and raise your bill.
Id rate this at a …….5.5/10, Its better than a Razr V3 or the Sinfully bad V360, but its menus and features, are messed up.
Oh and MP3 is Great!
