CONFIRMED: Bell and Telus are going to sell the iPhone in Canada
Brandon Davenport
Ok, sorry to go all Canadian on you, but Canada has its own AT&T, Rogers and they are not near as bad as AT&crap, but they are worse than Bell, Fido and Telus. Now Canadians are jumping for joy, jumping for COMPETITION -- something that the iPhone has never had. One Carrier, One iPhone -- (AT&T - iPhone) (Rogers - iPhone) now Canada is the first to get - iPhone wars.
I can see it now, Ads, Market ploys and clever Memes. But the truth is, this is a very good thing, and we are hoping to see lower prices, as a result of competition.
It started off with Bell signing a deal with Apple to sell the device starting November.
And then, another Canadian carrier, Telus, now has also confirmed they’ll be bringing the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS to Canada this November.
This means that Rogers Wireless is no longer the exclusive iPhone retailer in Canada -- regardless of which mobile operator you prefer, having more options is always good for the end user. So there is an iGod after all! iPhones for all!
