But Rogers already has the fastest, most reliable network. Really guys. Seriously. Don't you believe us? If you don't believe us, then that's YOUR problem! Fine, leave, we don't care. Please don't go. We're sad.]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/
Rogers is falling behind now. They have been playing catch up ever since the launch of the HSPA+ with speeds as well as their coverage is not being nearly as big for 3g. Plus roger lost there exclusive bonus of having the iPhone and has not brought in a new phone to compete.]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/Not to mention Telus currently has the best Android lineup.

They should add... "Coming SOON to your phone... but don't hold your breath for it!" Phft as IF it will be here!]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/
The reason that you don't see the iPhone in Manitoba on Telus or Bell is because they don't have their own network there, they piggy back off of MTS (or SaskTel in Saskatchewan). Until MTS or SaskTel upgrade their networks to HSPA+ networks instead of CDMA, or until Telus or Bell create their own infrastructure there, you will be iPhone-less on those carriers. Might as well look at your other options.]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/Aug 3rd 2010 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/Aug 3rd 2010 5:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/Aug 3rd 2010 2:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://ikejhamb.com]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/
I thought the network sharing was:
Rogers - Shares with their subbrands Fido & Chattr, roaming partners for Wind and GSM carriers
Bell - Shares with their subbrands Bell SoloMobile and Virgin Mobile
Telus - Shares with their subbrand Koodo]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/No bell and telus both share the same network for HSPA+ that is why they launched at the same time just before the Olympics.]]>Aug 3rd 2010 2:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/Aug 3rd 2010 2:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/03/telus-launching-north-americas-first-42mbps-dual-carrier-hspa/
Fido, Rogers, 7-11, Petro-Can all use the other network. WIND is the actual third national network in Canada.
