Telus Kicks Off 72 Hour Sale On Select Refurbished Devices

Tweet

This is certainly not the first time we are seeing a 72 hour sale coming from Telus, however it seems that the latest is currently underway. The sale is similar to previous and includes only a handful of devices, all of which are refurbished.

But on a positive note, most of the included handsets are free for those willing to sign up for a one year agreement. That being said, this 72 hour sale includes the Nokia E71, HTC Hero and Motorola Milestone smartphones as well as the LG Keybo2, which is a pre-paid device. And to get this out of the way, the sale will end on October 19th.

As noted, the three smartphones are free for those willing to sign up for a one-year agreement. In terms of the LG Keybo2, this one comes priced at $39.99, which is a $20 drop from the regular price of $59.99. This handset includes up to $50 in service credits for new activations and has features to include an internal and external display, numeric keypad, QWERTY keyboard, microSD card slot and a 3 megapixel camera with video recording.

Otherwise, the Nokia E71 is sporting a 3.2 megapixel camera with auto-focus, a front facing VGA quality camera, Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g, GPS with OVI Maps, HTML browser, Exchange, POP3/IMAP4/SMTP email, a hardware QWERTY keyboard and is available in black and/or red.

Next up are the two Android devices, the Hero and the Milestone. The Hero is sporting a 3.2 inch (480 x 360) touchscreen display, 5 megapixel camera and is available in black or white. The Milestone has a 3.7 inch display, slide-out QWERTY keyboard and a 5 megapixel camera with flash and video recording.

And lastly, for anyone looking to purchase these without the agreement, expect to pay $229.99 for the E71 or the Hero and $249.99 for the Milestone. Bottom line, none of these three are super exciting handsets, nor are they super new handsets — but still, for free on a one-year agreement they do not seem all that bad an option.
