iPhones in Canada

[billfred]

Is this really the first chance for Canadians to have iPhones and all their services or are they already penetrating the market with the unlocked phones eh??

IPhone is really hurting down here. It was trumped to be a new revolution - but honestly, it's flopped. Apple is even lowering itself to fudge sales numbers in press releases.

Sky high phone bills didn't help.

Hurting who and where?? Things are everywhere and capturing most of the smartphone market growth.

AT&T has a $25 dollar unlimited data so I can't really see how sky high phone bills are too much of an issue.

That is too bad - who is the best provider?

There have been lots of reports like that especially coming from the analyst from Bernstein who has had a sale on AAPL for about 6 months. Problem is actual earning numbers keep proving the projections wrong.

Europe sales are slowing because they are waiting for 3G. 3rd world sales of unlocked phones are screwing up the numbers as well. Every taxi driver and stripper in from Africa to Asia is dying to get their hands on an iPhone.

Rogers just got a contract I believe to get iphones to Canada.
