Unfortunately, AppleCare+ is available for US customers only leaving out Canada once again. It seems Apple couldn’t care less for unfortunate Canadian customers with broken iPhones. Don’t you think?

When my wife dropped and smashed hers, apple gave us a new one at no charge. Probably wouldn’t happen again though…. Impressesd me so much though I committed then and there to buying the ipad2 when it rolled.
they always do it once for new customers 🙂 I have friends who smashed it and got a new one free
damn it
Is this something that is going to be available in Canada? If it’s coming, I’ll wait to buy the 4s…I probably wait to buy an iPhone until Applecare+ is here-it’s that important to me.
