    Can’t wait, I’ll be the first in line at the Rogers store two weeks from today!

  2. At first, I was disappointed that it wasn’t unlimited data… but when I looked back at my last month’s data usage (I went on a 3 month unlimited trial with Rogers), I used 24Mb of data in what I thought was a “heavy usage month” for myself. So, seeing that their lowest plan is $60 voice with 400Mb of data, I’m now smiling ear to ear and even more excited about the arrival of July 11th. I will still be keeping my “old faithful” unlocked 8GB iPhone, but definitely getting the 3G. I figure that these original phones will become collectors items!!!
    Happy Canada day to everyone :-D

  3. Yup I knew it wasn’t going to be unlimited we don’t have such a thing in Canada but there still pretty fair I know for me on heavy usage Fido was offering 4 months of unlimited data so I used it as much as possible I got to around 450mb and that was using it all the time though with GPS I wonder if the 400 will be enough O_O

  4. I wish we could get an affordable voice/text only plan. I guess I need an unlocked 1st gen. Anyone interested in selling?

    Hi,

    I’m the IT manager at a company with close to 2000 employes, In the last the board of directors meeting we have decided to switch from our current mobile provider to Rogers, because our organization recognized the benefits of an iPhone, however after reviewing the Rogers data/voice plans released today, I’m very confidant to say that our organization will not switch to Rogers due to the lack of unlimited data plans and reasonable voice plans.
