Too bad the mobile data rate plans in Canada are a huge ripoff. Otherwise, this would be a hot deal!

Data plans, only $237CAD/mo + tax!

Operating Frequency: GSM 900 / 1800MHz

Too bad these will never work in North America.

I read it somewhere that you can get it in a triband version, but I haven't seen the data to confirm it. They would be stupid NOT to do that. North America would be a huge market for that kind of phone.

Sick phone, I might consider.

Doubt it'll happen any time soon. If this thing hits the NA market, Apple's lawyers would tear this company a new one (if not 2)

Only if it hit the market through legit channels. All they have to do is make it triband, and let the little guys bring it into places like Pacific Mall. I'd certainly be interested in one if it weren't for the rates that Rogers would charge.

at least make it quad-band to be considerable.

Apple is working with Rogers to try and get them to lower the data plan rates. Its best for everyone that clones not enter Canada until Rogers lower their prices.

That would be great news, and I think it would certainly give Rogers a leg up on the competition. (What, did I just use the word "competition" when talking about the Canadian cell phone market?).

What is the operating frequency in Canada?

[TurboVolvo]

What is the operating frequency in Canada?

800/1900MHz for all GSM services.

[Brandon]

800/1900MHz for all GSM services.

I think you meant 850/1900.

So will the clones such as the Cect P168(GSM tri-band 900/1800/1900) work in Canada?
