There has been a number of people commenting about what TELUS has planned for September 15th. A commercial was played over the weekend I believe across Canada in theatres promoting something with that glorious date. All we’ve been told is that “it’s not what you think”.
So is it for the wireless, TV, Home Phone or Internet? Are they going to launch a new plan… it could be just another promotion to attract attention to those animals? Possibly even promoting something to do with the Toronto Film Festival? Check it out here:


hspa soft launch?

The film festival starts on the 10th so it wouldn’t make much sense to have be something about TIFF announced 5 days into the festival.
Is there any special significance to be drawn from an award for bunnies?

Well at the beginning, it suggests the award is -just- for the best day of the week. (Tuesday – Sept 15th)
Hrm

The new TELUS terms of service kicks in Sept 15 and it mentions SIM cards. So maybe it is the HSPA launch … but what’s that got to do with “awards”?

S2 is the new Telus building they’re construction on York Street in Toronto. York and Front I think?

S2 = Storm 2
I don’t think this is hardware or HSPA related. It is plan/promotion related. Something about Tuesdays and potentially a link in with movies.
Telus Tuesday movie nights? Free Tuesday calling?

Ah yes this could make sense I know of such a deal in Europe from Orange, where they send a text on wednesday to each customer which permits 2 tickets for the price of 1.

If its plan or promotion related, I can’t imagine what would be so good that they have to hype it like that. Unless they are dropping all three year contracts and only doing two year ones in an attempt to set themselves apart.

Could it be a true unlimited data plan for say $30.

Hope it’s the HTC Hero

It’s got to be related to the movie sector – otherwise they’d do it on TV (especially as they’re pushing IPTV and “Belus Satellite TV”. It’s not the iPhone because that’s just an “us too” issue (they’re not going to make a big deal about “catching up to Rogers”).
I expect it’s either free movie tickets (if they’re partnering with a movie production company to get deals on PPV), or more likely a special on PPV, perhaps on Tuesdays…

Perhaps Telus is teaming up with Cineplex and their Scene movie points program for something.

They’re launching the iPhone.

it has nothing to do with TELUS wireless products or services
