Rogers bringing Apple’s iPhone to Canada

Rogers bringing Apple’s iPhone to Canada: “the announcement the company would start selling the iPhone”

This has got to be the biggest non-announcement ever.

  1. no date (show me “before the year is out” on a calendar)
  2. no price (would they like my left- or right arm-and-a-leg?)
  3. no new info (beyond the worst-kept secret in Canadian telephony history; that Rogers, the only pan-Canadian GSM network, would carry it… some time. later.)

Sigh. My guess is we’ll see lots of mainstream TV shows in iTunes’ Canadian store before we see iPhones for non-millionaires.

Austrian iPhone Launch

March 13, 2008 @ 10:31 pm · Filed under Apple, Gadgets, iPhone

As if Ireland getting the iPhone ahead of Canada wasn’t bad enough, now Austria has them. Austria!

Austrian iPhone Launch - The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW): “the Austrian iPhone launch is due to kick off tomorrow”

Maybe if we had electricity in Canada, we could get iPhones, too. Or movies on iTunes. Or TV shows that weren’t aimed at the monster truck demographic.

Then again, Rogers will probably want $10 a byte for data, so maybe it doesn’t matter.

Phill Ryu has posted a YouTube clip of his 2-year-old working an iPhone. That’s pretty cool. Let’s see that with a Blackberry.Maybe if the 2-year-old was running the video camera this clip wouldn’t make you feel so sea-sick…
