The iPhone 5 is rumoured to officially be unveiled on October 5th, something that Apple fans have been waiting and pining over for the last number of months. Carriers in Canada have slowly reduced the 3-year contract price, TELUS, Bell, Virgin and SaskTel have all cut their pricing of the iPhone 4 16GB to $99 or less. Now Rogers is jumping into the game, the above doc states they are offering their current customers the option to upgrade at a lower price of $99 3/yr, but you’ll have to meet the standard HUP requirements. The Sony Ericsson Xperia arc is another device Rogers is giving the early HUP option too. This is only on until September 30th. The countdown is on…

Update: Here’s what the breakdown will look like, if you decide to go for this”
– $149.99 for the iPhone 4 16GB
– $35 Administrative Fee for the HUP
– Plus, any early HUP fee – this depends on what phone and when your previous contract was signed (see details here)

Update #2: Fido is also offering the same discount on the iPhone 4. In addition, they have discounted the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro to $0. The $25 hardware upgrade will still be applied.
