You also DON'T have to change your price plan to get the iphone, this is good for customers with grandfathered plans like city fido, . but....you SHOULD get a data plan for this phone, or your not getting the full functionality of this phone, kinda like those people who buy a hiptop but don't get the $20 unlimited hiptop data option, the phone was useless...

yeah but if you read the fine prints of that Paolo it's only until Aug. 31st. anyone picking up the iPhone after that is screwed, not to mention if you break the 3 year contract it's $2600.00 minus the months you already have / had used it.

the thing that is making a lot of people mad is the fact your limited on your data usage, and there is no offere of Unlimited usage, and that's what pissing everyone off.

another thing that made the news is Telus & Bell will be charging $0.15 for all incoming text messages starting aug. 1st unless you have the unlimited text plan or what not.

I don't know where you get the cancellation fee, maybe your thinking about how telus charges like $1000, well more like a max of $760, but for rogers and fido, the cancellation fee is capped at a max of $400. With all the media attention and the availability of the new data rates, it gives people PLEANTY of time to add this data plan to their package if they get an iPhone, there is no excuse to complain. There will definately be other data offerings down the road too, u think this will all go away?? your nutz. They're waiting for more competition so they can introduce better planss, right now there is no competition. Bellus (telus+bell) is basically owned.

I've never personaly seen or heard someone go OVER the 6 GIGS on a mobile phone, 6 gigs is VERY GENEROUS, TRUST ME. I am a heavy data user my self, and have used roughly what, 1 GIG the most? and that was when I was theathering ie using a PCMCIA card modem with fido. P.S. I have the unlimited Data plan for $50 that fido once offered. People had the chance to get this plan within the last year to two, they BUNKED OUT.
