  I’m not really impressed. All he did was put a SIM card in his iPhone and run a few commands to have it unlocked. It’s not like he actually invented the hack or modified the device’s hardware…

  hi alex, I am not impressed too, although you have to be courageous to play a “hack” on a $700+ device.

  but the post just proves one point. if you are a die-hard apple fan, you can now use an iPhone in Montrelaé.

  Hello the the 400$/month bill; data plans in Canada are ones of the worst in the world. Seriously is the CRTC is sleeping or what. Maybe it’s because the governemant still want his part over the taxes on our big bills.

  Hi Max, that’s precisely why I said you should take talks about iphones in canada with a grain of salt. For me, it’s very unlikely that Rogers or Fido will make it avalaible one day. Knowing too well telcos in Canada, i know they will ask for the high price with Apple. Then they will want to get more profits with the data plans, which as you say will get customers bills as high as $400.

  unfortunately, like in internet, I believe the CRTC can’t do much. PKP, head of Québecor said the current telecom companies have formed an oligarchy and I believe he has a correct assessment
