iPhone in Canada Blog - Canada's #1 iPhone Resource

Wow…I have some HUGE news everyone. The wait is finally over! I just got off the phone an hour ago with my Uncle who is a Marketing Manager with Rogers back in Toronto and he says the iPhone being anounced in Canada today! The announcement will take place at 12:00 EST, and immediately the iPhones will be available in store. They have been keeping the entire campaign under wraps, hence the silence we’ve observed all this time.

Also, a new combined monthly voice/data plan will be launching just for the iPhone. It’s going to be called the Rogers iPhone Monthly Plan (umm…how original). The following might change, but he mentioned it will include the following:

• Rogers iPhone Monthly Plan:
• $75/month + SAF/Taxes
• 500 daytime minutes
• 6PM evening and weekends
• Caller ID/Visual Voicemail (wow!)
• Unlimited Data Plan on the new 3G handset!!

Anyways, this is just a huge announcement by Rogers! I never saw this one coming–maybe the Great Canadian iPhone Petition had something to do with it? Anyways guys, STAY tuned to the online forums and the newscasts for the breaking news! I’ll be counting down for sure! =)
