Cingular has the HTC StarTrk, TyTN, Samsung BlackJack, HP 6945. There is no comparison and it is a damn shame Canada is a third world country when it comes to cellular phones. Oh well, at least I can get the 2003SE edition of the HP69xx at Rogers. Whoohoo!

And now you think we'll get the iphone before Cingular? You poor, delusional man. Is reaching a market smaller than the state of California really in Mr. Jobs' best interest? Cingular had to change the way voice mail was delivered just for the iphone. Can you imagine how long Rogers will take to get that done? Third world countries already have 3G dammit!

I hope you're not a betting man because you'd be broke from all the times you picked the Washington Generals over the Harlem Globetrotters just because you thought they were due for a win.

Please save yourself the embarrassment and everyone else from your crazy talk and don't reply because you're fooling non-Canadians into thinking that Rogers has the greatest cell phone selection in the world. Even people who work for Rogers know better.]]>Jan 22nd 2007 11:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/Jan 22nd 2007 8:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/Jan 22nd 2007 8:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/Jan 22nd 2007 8:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/

I'd like an Iphone so I could skype over wifi, but rogers will probably lock that feature out.
They'll price it at $699 cdn with a 3 year contract.

As soon as Apple announced that they were partnering with Cingular I knew right away that when it came to Canada that it would be with Rogers because (a) they are the largest provider here, (b) they used to be Rogers AT&T, and AT&T now owns Cingular, and (c) Rogers usually gets the latest phones before other providers.

The only real question in my mind is when.]]>Jan 22nd 2007 10:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/
Besides, rumors here says that it will not be released before 2008. With this delay, it will probably be the second gen iPhone ;)]]>Jan 22nd 2007 10:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/http://www.engadget.com/2007/01/22/rogers-set-to-carry-the-iphone-in-canada/
There's no way anyone in Canada will pay $700 Canadian for a iPhone. Only to make calls, that a waste of money. Not gonna happen Apple.

There's also a GOOD CHANCE of Roger screw their customers with a 3 years contract for 50 bucks a month. iPhone are as good as dead.

Better luck next time apple...there's alway charging a $5 for a update of itunes. LOL

Their monthly fees \ plans are horrible. And they hardly throw in any good promotions towards new activations.

Fido was much better before Rogers bought them out. Now rogers just made Fido Crappier instead of better.

And the sad thing is. Rogers owns pretty much all the GSM service in canada, so there isnt any competition (even from CDMA, thats more a niche...since thier phones are even worst than the GSM versions)]]>Jan 22nd 2007 11:10PM
