It does not cost anything to download.  However, there will be some charges that you will have to take into consideration when you use the program.  There will be a $.50 charge in order to be able to send or withdraw money into a checking or savings account.  You will also be charged $10 for any overdrafts that occur.

So this is incase someone was still on the fence about getting a new Apple iPhone 3GS it turns out Rogers and Fido have decided to extended their 6GB for $30 plan.

That mean that until September 15, 2009 if you have a qualifying phone (Magic, Dream, iPhone 3G or iPhone 3Gs) call up Rogers/Fido now and get on the plan.

This  is great news and better with the fact that tethering is free until December 31, 2009.

What are you waiting for call them!

Well it seems to follow up on our earlier posts we have received more information regarding the iPhone 3Gs coming to Canada.  According to a report over at BoyGeniusReport.com it seems that us in Canada will be able to get the new Apple iPhone 3Gs at the same pricing as in the US.   This means that as of June 19th the iPhone 3Gs will be available in Canada at both Rogers and Fido for the same pricing as the US.  The 16GB will be $199 (new activation) the 32GB will be $299 (new activation) and the 8GB iPhone 3G will be $99 (new activation).

Rogers will also be reactivating their 6GB for $30 plan for a limited time with the iPhone as of June 9th.  This is currently available but only for their new HTC Android phones.  You will be able to tether your iPhone to your laptop but your plan has to be a 1GB minimum plan.  The best news of all is if you want the new iPhone 3Gs but you aren’t eligible for an upgrade or don’t want a contract you will be able to buy the iPhone without a contract.

This seems to be validated by a Rogers spokeperson through twitter as was reported by the Globe and Mail.  I guess all anyone can do is wait until June 19th when the iPhone is released.
