Rogers/Fido Release 6GB Data Plan For iPhones

By Ex on June 9th, 2009 85

Starting June 9, 2009, any activation as a new customer or upgrade to either the iPhone 3G or iPhone 3G “S” (coming June 19, 2009), is automatically eligible for the $30 6GB iPhone Data Plan until July 31, 2009! This plan runs on a 3 year contract and must be tied to another select voice plan. So it is select Voice Plan + 6GB Data plan under a 3 year contract.

    It’s also worth pointing out that this plan will allow tethering.

    What most of us are waiting for is the 3GS pricing for people who bought the 3G last July.

    8GB iPhone 3G will cost you $99.99 ($149.99 without an eligible plan)

    this just made me think about the thing I read in the Winnipeg Free Press that gave me a good chuckle:

    “The 16-gigabyte version of the 3G S will be C$199, while the 32-gigabyte version will be $299, both on a three-year contract. Rogers will also offer the phones without a three-year contract. Rogers will also cut the price of the eight-gigabyte 3G phone to $99 with a three-year contract on June 19 when the new phones are released.”

    w/o 3 year contract? laughable. lol.

    The fact that I have to renew my contract is ridiculous. I just called customer relations to know if there’s a workaround, to no avail. Once again Rogers made me a mad customer.

    Why is it laughable? If you don’t mind paying the non-subsidized price for the device they’ll gladly give it to you without a contract.

    I’m kinda lost… How come I need to turn Edge (Which is data right?) on in order to send MMS with SwirlyMMS? It uses Data and I get charged. Something to do with my plan? I don’t have a contract with Rogers (Free:)) and data plan either LOL Just always have/use WIFI.

    Does somebody know if we can use the data plan for Skype or we need to unlock the phone… I know that AT&T does not allow it, but what about Rogers?

    That is an excellent question. Apple has said 3.0 supports voip but it depends on the carrier. They should allow it, we are paying very high prices for data and should be able to decide what to do with it.
