Rogers Canada Offers 6GB Data Plan for $30/Month
Rogers issued a press release today announcing a last minute special promotional offer for the iPhone 3G in Canada.
Select Rogers stores in Canada will open at 8 a.m. on July 11th for the iPhone 3G launch.
Effective July 11, and as a limited time promotional offer for customers who activate by August 31 on a three year contract, a data-only offering of 6GB of data for $30 per month is being made available that can be added to any in-market voice plan. For example, with 6GB of data, iPhone 3G users can visit 35,952 web pages, or send and receive 157,286 emails, or watch 6,292 minutes of YouTube videos each and every month.
The rate plan appears to be in response to the overwhelming consumer outrage at the original iPhone plans announced two weeks ago. Initially, data plans for the iPhone topped out at 2GB for the highest $115/month plan which also came with 800 voice minutes + unlimited voice nights/weekends.Select Rogers stores in Canada will open at 8 a.m. on July 11th for the iPhone 3G launch.

Finally!
Straight from the horse's mouth.
I'd like to see somebody go over 6 GB data on an iPhone (without tethering, of course).
Lesson learned: stand up for what you believe in!
Now, anybody know what the best deal is for a voice plan (new customer)?

wow, I was just speaking with the Retention dept. and threatened to cancel. They had no problems in doing it unlike in the past. They were given ZERO flexibility (their words) by the higher ups.
6GB plus a voice plan is what I want. Good to see the power of the people at work.

A friend of mine informed me this plan is for new customers who do not have already have data plans with them. Can anyone confirm or deny that?
