Under The Bridge

Let’s check out today’s Canadian iPhone rumours: June, check; 3G, check; “least expensive data plan of any carrier announced to date” — say what?

Data, however, is expected to cost less than for American customers, those same tips indicate. The sources claim that the iPhone will qualify for Rogers’ $7 on-device browsing plan, which currently allows all phones offered by Rogers (excepting BlackBerry and Windows Mobile devices) to access the web as much as they like through the carrier’s officially-sanctioned browser. Whether Rogers will allow YouTube, the App Store, and other official but non-web devices to fall into the unlimited plan is unknown…

For those non-Canadians in our audience, Rogers is the only iPhone-capable network up here, and when the iPhone was announced last year, the closest to its unlimited data plan then available for anything through Rogers was $295/month, limit of 500 MB, with around 1/10 the minutes  to boot.

What a difference a not-quite-year makes!
