Kinda shady. Those aren’t the pricing tiles Best Buy uses for cell phones. Granted, maybe they do things differently in Canada, but pricing signs are the same across the board for the company. These look like someone took a home theatre tag and printed up a fake set for the Dream. Pricing sounds right though.

3 year contract: Fone=$135 Bill=45*36=1620, total=1755/36=$48.7 per month
2 year contract: Fone=$450 Bill=45*24=1080, total=1530/24=$63.75 per month
1 year contract: Fone=$500 Bill=45*12=540, total=1040/12=$86.66 per month
Off contract: Fone=$550 Bill=45*12=540, total=1040/12=$91 per month
(assumption: without contract you keep the fone for a year)
So the longer you stay the cheaper the fone and the relation becomes, although logically there shud be a much cheaper V+D plan for off contract buyers since they are paying a premium for a device.
