I've been searching around for Canadian release news as well. I heard through the gossip mills that the hold up in Canada is negotiation over pricing... Who knows, it is Rogers? I ran into an old friend the other day and he had an iPhone - here in Canada. The catch, no phone - just data and email. Apparently he's on the Rogers EDGE plan. So if you can do without the phone, there's a possibility. I think I'm going to wait - once Rogers officially releases I imagine Apple will have gone through a few more revisions of the iPhone. Might be a while though. Thanks for posting this D’Arcy. I’ve been searching around for Canadian release news as well.

We suggest you visit www.rogers.com/phones because when new products are released they are listed here.

Even worked with my $10 special bluetooth headset (way better than it ever worked with my Treo 900P). So far- missing a search function in the contacts (I have over 1400- that's a lot of finger waving)- video capability- and most of all- some way of running "Now up to date" and "Now Contact" on it- (address book and iCal are poor imitations). It came in super handy on a sales call today- could show the client why their site sucked- right on my phone. I hope you don't have to wait too long. D’Arcy-
