So it is actually getting better now. The price drop is slow because normal Canadians are not using any data device (Canadians like FREE phones and cheap plans.) and Rogers/Fido is the only GSM provider in town.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[blameboy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2008 9:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Rogers announces iPhone 3G plans, unlimited data isn't one of them]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Its not all that exciting, but at least they threw in the unlimited WiFi hotspot access.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Erik]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2008 9:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Rogers announces iPhone 3G plans, unlimited data isn't one of them]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</guid><description><![CDATA[While these plans are certainly not very good, I think expecting any kind of parity with the US market for plans was absurd. Data in Canada is absurdly expensive. To think it would remain so for everyone other than iphone owners is equally absurd. In any case, I used an unlocked Iphone on Rogers for 6 months. 2 gig of data is more than most people will need given that you cannot tether. I suspect the people that will suffer are heavy youtube users, whoever the hell they are. I simply dont understand the need to use streaming video on a handheld device other than on rare occasions. At the end of the day, prices are headed downward, and will likely continue to drop as more people use these devices for data.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[poelbaum]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2008 10:10AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Rogers announces iPhone 3G plans, unlimited data isn't one of them]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Data is absurdly expensive in Canada because Rogers MAKES it absurdly expensive.  There's absolutely no reason for them to be charging such ridiculous data rates.  This was an opportunity for Rogers to say to users "Hey, it's about time we joined the civilized world in terms of data rates" and started offering cheap data plans for ALL data users, not just iPhone users.  I also don't understand why they have to have different value packs for iPhone users as opposed to regular users?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ryan Waddell]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2008 11:20AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Rogers announces iPhone 3G plans, unlimited data isn't one of them]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/06/27/rogers-announces-iphone-3g-plans-unlimited-data-isnt-one-of-th/</guid><description><![CDATA[Funny thing is, data is only expensive on the Canadian GSM network.
