globeandmail.com: Researchers reveal iPhone cost

globeandmail.com: Researchers reveal iPhone cost:

"The phone will go on sale in 21 other countries including Canada on July 11, at varying prices, all subsidized by carriers."

***********

The issue is of course that Rogers (the only carrier with GSM technology here in Canada) will demand a minimum 3-year contract if you want the iPhone.

Data rates in Canada are totally out to lunch; I checked my bill last night, and if I were to use my Motorola to access data, I would be paying over $50 a meg.

Mind you, if I signed up for a data-plan, it would cost me, oh about $90 / month / 1Gb.

I think I'll stick with the iPod Touch for a while, thanx.
