It’s amazing what a little outrage by customers will do. Rogers has quietly put out a short press release. Here it is in full:
Toronto, ON (October 9, 2013) – In response to customers’ feedback and excitement about the device, Rogers looks forward to offering the new Z30 to its customers.
“We have a longstanding partnership with Blackberry and continue to be big supporters of the company and their products. Rogers will be making the device available online, through our national reservation system and directly to our business to business customers. We’re pleased to add the new Z30 to our roster of Blackberry smartphones, which includes the Z10, Q10 and Q5.”
I’m guessing the heat was too much for Rogers to bear. There’s no word on pricing or availability. Most likely it will be available on October 15th and it will only be available online which is telling in my opinion. Clearly they don’t feel like devoting in store shelf space to it.
Hopefully Rogers will learn something from this as this didn’t need to happen at all.
