Re: Tens of thousands sign rogered iPhone petition

Their Hosting service pulled the plug- Didn't get many details, although I know they got a dedicated server. Perhaps the change in DNS hasn't propagated everywhere yet... They're up to 28,421 signatures. It's great to see this although it may not have much impact in the short term. Nonetheless, I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the Rogers PR dept. Better yet, I'd love to know what Mr. Rogers really thinks about all of this complaining. Is there any remorse at all? Hope you all encourage everyone you know to sign- this has to be one of the largest protests we've seen towards our favourite Telco. Will be great if we can all hold off on buying the new iPhone (breaks my heart, cause I am a Mac Fanboy). This being said- I'm sure that if we do hold off, Roger's will spin it as a plus for blackberry or something.....nuff said...

Re: Rogers iPhone pricing released (for real this time)

What can we do to put pressure on our Govt' to start either regulating the prices, or allowing US providers to enter our market? Although I do recognize the fact that at least Rogers creates jobs, I think it is utterly ridiculous that they can control the GSM mobile market in such a monopolistic manner. If they were regulated by any kind of quality control for their customer service, they would most likely go out of business. They offer preferential pricing and service to certain customers (I know this because I've managed to get certain packages by spending over 6 hours on the phone with them). Isn't that illegal?

What also really gets to me is that I don't see how Canada's youth will be able to play with new technology due to the price barriers. How do we expect the next generation of entrepreneurs to innovate if they can't access the technology?

If anyone has any ideas on what can be done to put pressure, please advise. Perhaps WirelessNorth could post some sort of form letter that would be sent to the proper members of Govt or CRTC? (Sorry to lay this on you guys- but you're so good at this :))
