Posted on June 9th, 2008 in canada, technology |
More info as it comes. Here’s the press release.
Update: It will be available on Fido as well. Prices will start at $199 CAN on three year contracts. The important info now is how they will be sold (through Rogers stores, Apple stores, online?) and the ultimate monthly plan costs (in the States, the cheapest voice+data plan will be $70 US).

Nice. More people of which to be jealous :P I’m hoping to phase out my cell phone in favour of email when we get a solid wifi network here, but um, maybe I’m dreaming. Happy with my Touch and chunky cell phone for now haha. I wonder if Fido will get it because they’re under Rogers? Hmm…
This page says Fido! W00t http://www.apple.com/ca/iphone/appstore/
My understanding is that the 3G iPhone will _only_ be sold through the carriers. The reason behind this is the prevalence of cracked iPhones circulation around. Perviously they were sold through Apple stores without activation on a phone plan and such. This will not be happening this time around, you will not be able to leave with an iPhone until you’ve signed a three year contract with a provider.
