That's just data.. you'll still be able to make calls as long as you get signal... but in terms of hi-speed data, you may end up reverting back to the slower EDGE speeds...

Definitely better as I had a hard time understanding what all those unlimited are in the first text based table.

I LOVE my rogers plan... I really hope I could get a hold of an unlocked, out-of-contract iPhone and just add data and be done with it...

I'd end up paying about the same $60ish/month, but would get a LOT more features on the voice plan

great find!
thanks for the info - need.... willpower...... must.... buy...... data plan....

Pretty expensive given that you need to add Caller ID price, system access and maybe early evening for many people.

Any iPhone user now comment on data usage? I can't imagine using over 100MB in my Blackberry, but I know iPhone uses a lot more.

Wow. Those are terrible. At least it makes me feel not so bad for recently getting a new phone before the canadian iphone was announced.

I spend a month working US and everyone had the iphone. I loved the thing. My contract with bell is up Dec and I am soo leaving them.

The iphone is very good IMHO.

Is 400MB enough for normal usage per month? Doesn't seem a lot as I use at least that up each day from home ...

Also what are these "Rogers and Fido Hotspots" the articles are talking about?

Care to explain the bolded part? I have never gone over 100MB on my Blackberry either but this iPhone is pretty tempting.
