Rogers Rep Keith Mcarthur has tweeted some information on the launch of the iPhone 3G S in Canada. I'll let his tweets do the talking but unfortunately it seems that Rogers like AT&T will force customers who purchased the iPhone 3G last year to pay a big premium to update...
-----
Rogers/Fido pricing is $199 for 16GB iPhone 3GS; $299 for 32GB iPhone 3GS on a three-year voice and data plan.
8GB version of the iPhone 3G will drop to $99 on June 19 at Rogers and Fido with a three-year voice and data plan.
Rogers is reintroducing the $30/6GB data plan for iPhones effective tomorrow, June 9. Offer available for a limited time.
Rogers/Fido are only national carriers to offer $25/500MB plan. 93% of iPhone users use less than 500MB so this is the right plan for most.
There will be a no-contract price for customers who want to upgrade before they're eligible for a subsidy.
Hardware upgrade subsidy usually available at 2 years.
No - there won't be pre-order.
Tethering will be included for customers with data plans of 1GB or more until at least the end of the year.
Rogers already at 7.2 MBPS. We were first national carrier in North America: http://bit.ly/13wkj4
Existing customers can use tethering on 6GB plans once they upgrade OS. Included free until at least end of the year.
No need to sign a new contract to get MMS. Upgrade operating system and pick a plan that includes MMS.
MMS will be available at Rogers and Fido June 17 when 3.0 operating system is released.
