Just saw this on reddit.  Thought you might enjoy it.

I went over to the Telus building, guy with cape was still there. Didn't go up though, had to go back for my train. Probably out already.

Same q as above. Is there still stock at Toronto?

[ShawnC13]

Anyone know if there are any left in TO.  Saw the Post about Vancouver being sold out.  I wonder about the other markets anyone have info on them

Fairly common

People try waiting to last second to buy a house (yes crazy in this market) so I am not surprised they read about cell plan and just think about it

[riversday]

Wow this is really exciting for you Public Mobile! I hope you can keep up with the new registrations.

[srlawren]

@NDesai true!  🙂

[firstdataplan]

Very excited to see that

@NDesai in fairness, some may have only just heard about the promo, as not everyone frequents the channels where it's been talked about regularly.  But yes, I'm sure many did procrastinate.  Some may have been trying to wait out their current month or conract with their carrier, which is unfortunate.

Or some might want to donate 🙂

@ToniCipriani I don't think so. Public is not even the cheapest. We just support them because best value for money.

That's why I said "reasonable" not "cheap". The normal going rate if you walk into a store, $75 for 4GB a month, is hardly considered reasonable.

@kav2001c tomorrow I will be even further away in suburbia where I live. Dang. I'd try to pop over at lunch today but my company is having it's 2 year anniversary party at lunch so that's out.

Or just simply how messed up carrier plans in Canada are, people have to line up like this for a reasonable plan.

[srlawren]

Wow that's impressive! I wish I was at my current client's site today, which is quite near the Vancouver location for pick up, but alas km at my employer's office in Yaletown and probably can't make it over to witness the enthusiasm in person. Wish it had been yesterday! 🙂

@hummuschips no picture of the Public superhero yet? I want to see the orange caped crusaders!

Wow, that line alone is probably better advertising than just forum posts!!

Impressive, and awesome to see!
