Roger's data plans are a scam, anyway. That's the one thing that keeps me from considering an iPhone. They basically sucker you into a 3 year contract where you end up paying more for less than iPhone users in the US and in the UK. You can see a price/plan comparison here.

The sad thing is the data they give you. Given that the iPhone is an Internet phone, 400 mb/month isn't really enough (considering one Youtube video can be 12-20 megabytes in size).

But I haven't really followed the iPhone in Canada since its launch, so they might be offering better plans now. Newer phones are coming out as well, touch-screen and all; better OS; and so forth. They're meant to be competitors for the iPhone, and will be carried by Telus/Bell. So it might be worth holding out for a while.

I think Apple said that they were disgusted with Rogers.
