Today we caught wind of a plan being launched by Rogers Wireless and sister company Fido.

This new data plan will be applicable to any smart phone and provides 6GB of data for the low monthly fee of $30. Rogers is finally starting to listen to consumers who are sick of their high data rates!

This is an awesome addition to their lineup of data plans, but it is not expected to be offered any longer than the end of August so get it now while you can!

As promised, here are some photos of the Canadian iPhone 3G our source is confidential.

The first impression of the Sony Ericsson Z750i is confusion! I do believe this phone has a personality disorder, is it a clam shell or is it a flip phone? Then again is it a cheap pay-as-you-go phone or a middle-of-the-road 3G phone??

As you all may or may not know, the iPhone is set to debut on the Rogers Wireless, and Fido networks here in Canada on Friday, July 11th.

RuinediPhone.com is Canada’s response to the recent price gouging brought on by the sleek new device offering from Apple.

The website was started as a way of showing the utter displeasure of Canadians everywhere. Rogers wireless has absolutely ruined the iPhone for people in Canada with price plan offerings that come nowhere close to those of our neighbours the United States of America.

RuinediPhone.com has gained momentum with its recent media exposure. RuinediPhone.com also offers up to the minute information regarding the iPhone’s release in Canada, as well as a petition to be sent to Rogers head office on Friday.

Should you feel outraged about the priceplans offered by Rogers in Canada, add your name to the petition, and donate whatever you can to help the cause.

We here at NerdyBlog.com support RuinediPhone.com, and hope that the collective efforts of everyone involved with the site are heard!

I was having a great day. I got all my chores done, playing my video games, talking to my woman, and then I get this message from Drew saying that the Iphone is coming to Canada.

Great.

Not only did my heart sink, but I knew the impending doom that’s about to happen.

Don’t get me wrong, I like the concept of the Iphone, and I know that it will “revolutionize” the cellular industry as we know it. It’s too bad the client base it’s aimed incorrectly. Read the rest of this entry »
