Bell, Telus end Canadian iPhone exclusivity

Hey Mr. Rogers. Are you just happy to see me or is that an apple Tablet in your pocke... I mean hand?

I hope rogers has better prices onces bell and telus gets the iphone!

There is hope... I hope!

No sweat, no matter how much I don't like Rogers/Fido, Bell and Telus are 10 times worse when it comes to overcharge "mistakes" or just basic customer service.

We're really screwed in Canada.

The Bell/Telus network is not "pledged," it's live and ready to roll. I snagged a screenshot on my iPhone displaying a network named "302880" in Whitehorse, Yukon yesterday (http://wp.me/p3FZ7-sW). That's been reported to be the Bell/Telus network in action on many forums and blogs.

Anyone else a little annoyed at the use of an icon like Fred Rogers for such a crappy joke?

I'm soooo jealous, yet excited at the same time! First England, now Canada. Please announce Verizon in the US is next!!!

been scouring the interweb for the answer to this, no luck yet...
will the existing roger's iphones work on bell's network, and vise versa when people discover that bell is just as evil as rogers?

this reminds me of the douche/turd southpark episode.

I waited and waited. Now I can drop my BB Pearl into the sewer and pick up a nice 8 Gig iPhone 3Gs, that doesn't lag and bog down. *pumps fist* He shoots he scores ^_^

Ok, so how much is it to get out of my Rogers contract?

It's almost time some newcomers steps in the bandwagon of cellular services...I didn't want to use Rodgers as my main cellular service provider since I am with Bell for residential phone and Internet.My wife has a cellular with Bell Mobility so I will have some kind of rebates since I have three services with Bell:can't wait to join the rest of the world in the IPhone hype!
