iPhone Coming to Canada
January 25th, 2007 Posted in Apple/iPod
Gizmodo reports the iPhone is coming to Canada through Rogers, which is the cool kid on the wireless block who gets all the cool devices first.
Update: According to Telephia, 23.5 million wireless customers in the U.S. have phones with integrated music players - a 5-fold increase from a year ago. While many of these people have loaded music to their phones via a PC, only a small number of downloaded music using a wireless connection. Mobile data services revenue has climbed 88% year-over-year to $3.5-billion in the third-quarter.

Now the question is, will Rogers offer incentives like the one Cingular is offering its iPhone customers? Supposedly, if you buy an iPhone through Cingular, you get 18 months of free service. That would certainly convince some people to go with the iPhone.

You know the irony of that pic on Gizmodo? Fred Rogers started his program on the CBC! Then PBS snatched him up. Of course he brought along this young guy named Coombs … and the rest is Canadian TV history.
