Rogers Might Not Get A Slice Of Apple

July 8th, 2008 by GCI Canada Staff

Lots of rumours and speculation about the latest Rogers/Apple spat today.

From TechCrunch: “Now it looks like Apple won’t sell the iPhone 3G at its Canadian retail stores, leaving Rogers (and Fido, its partner is crime) flapping in the wind.”

From iPhone Atlas: “Speculation regarding a conflict between Apple and Canadian iPhone 3G carrier Rogers appear to be overblown, if such a quarrel exists at all. … However, Apple never planned to sell the iPhone 3G at its retail locations in Canada.”

Whatever the final outcome of all this, it’s still a PR nightmare for Ted.

    Why does it always seem that the Canadina tech consumer is grasping at straws? Getting the shaft again - and I don’t care who’s fault it is.
