These two are like brothers fighting over toys.
This morning, Telus filed legal action against Rogers for misleading advertisements claiming that Rogers is “Canada’s fastest network”. Rogers has been running these ads, along with another one whose slogan is “Canada’s fastest network: two times faster than any other” since 2007. We have seen them all over television and billboards, but now Telus says they are false!
Recently Rogers and Fido both updated their various iPhone related value packs to include Name Display along side the Caller Display feature. This was primarily due to the release of iPhone OS 3.1, which, among other updates, brought with it the ability to use Name Display on the iPhone…or did it?
After various personal testing and many emails from concerned readers, I have concluded that Name Display … Read More
As of November 5, 2009, the four major Canadian wireless carriers consisting of Rogers, Fido, Bell, and Telus are all finally running HSPA+ with network speeds of up to 21Mbps.
For a country that is traditionally viewed as behind the technology curve, I feel pretty good about this. Not only do our four main carriers all have HSPA+ with 21Mbps speeds, but they … Read More
Just this past Wednesday, Bell launched their HSPA network. On Thursday, Telus followed suit and officially entered the 3G HSPA+ game too. With three networks in Canada now offering the iPhone, which one should you go with?
On Thursday I had a chance to speak with reporter Ted Chernecki once again, regarding the iPhone in Canada and the launch of the Bell/Telus HSPA+ network. Here’s the short clip of yours … Read More
Remember when Rogers “eliminated” their System Access Fee, only to replace it with the Government Regulated Recovery Fee (GRRF), which has nothing to do with the government whatsoever? Well, today Virgin Mobile’s Chairman, Sir Richard Branson pulled out his guns to attack Rogers over this questionable and unjustified fee. I think he hit the nail on the head, so to speak:
“I’d like to congratulate Rogers for removing one fee … Read More
It seems that the folks over at BGR have heard whispers of a possible 8GB iPhone 3GS to emerge on AT&T. While many would say that it won’t happen, it very well could considering Apple’s current pricing schemes.
This could also mean interesting news for Canada as many devices that are planned and released on AT&T have the tendency to make their way North.
Apple has indicated that $199 is … Read More
Rogers/Fido have introduced a new data service for its existing customers called the “Data Day Pass”. The new data service is not applicable to current data plan holders, but is instead targeted at customers that do not have any kind of data/mobile Internet plan.
Data Day Pass
The Data Day Pass is a service that provides data (Internet) to Rogers/Fido customers that do not currently have a data plan. For $2.99/day, iPhone … Read More
As Fido has updated their $10 iPhone Value pack to include Name Display, Rogers has now also quietly introduced the change to its own iPhone Value packs.
The iPhone 3.1 firmware update brought many new changes and updates to the iPhone but one of those changes was finally supporting Name Display.
Many carrier plans include (some don’t!) features such as Caller Display and Name Display but what many … Read More
More carriers of the iPhone are a good thing for Canadians. Yet, looking at our exclusive leaked Bell and Telus iPhone plans, one might think otherwise. Yesterday Bell issued a press release confirming their scheduled November 4th debut of their highly anticipated HSPA+ GSM network. The following excerpts are from their press release:
“In two days, Canadians will be able to access the most advanced wireless network in the … Read More
The iPhone 3.1 firmware update brought many new changes and updates to the iPhone but one of those changes was finally supporting Name Display.
Many carrier plans include (some don’t!) features such as Caller Display and Name Display but what many people do not realize is that those two features are not the same.
To summarize, Caller Display displays an incoming caller’s phone number while Name Display shows that caller’s … Read More
