iPhone hits Canada... Finally

Finally, confirmation that the iPhone is coming to Canada! Rogers announced yesterday morning that they would be releasing the iPhone later on this year. Although no date has been set as of yet for the exact release date, Rogers Chief Operating Officer has hinted that the price of data plans in Canada might be reduced in order to capitalize on iPhone sales. This announcement comes after months of speculation that Apple hates Canada.

Finally, Canada will be getting some of that higher technology we only see South of the border and some love from Apple!

It would be great if Bell would start carrying iPhones, especially given their $7/month unlimited data plan. It works like a charm on my HTC Touch, it's reliable and relatively fast (I use Skype through it all the time). But, as far as I know, that plan is restricted to HTC Touch phones.
They would easily leave Rogers behind in sales if they were to do the same with iPhones!
