Rogers Caves to Angry iPhone Canucks

Rogers, Canada’s sole iPhone provider, released it’s plans some time ago to screams of protest, horror and mostly, rage.

Their plans were so upsetting to Canadians who had to sit out of the iPhone launch while their brothers to the south (and west) rubbed their noses in it. The announcement spawned websites, petitions and blog posts across the internet.

It’s even rumored to have drawn the ire of Apple itself who are said to have made a power play to divert a majority of stock destined for Canada to Europe. They also have said that Canadian Apple stores will not be selling the device on launch day.

However, it seems that they have been heard by Rogers, who have decided to release a better value data portion to their plans raising the cap up to 6GB. Still not the unlimited plans that AT&T are offering but a huge improvement.

Will Apple ding Vodafone NZ for their behavior? Will Vodafone NZ listen to it’s customers? Don’t hold your breath.
