Maybe it is because of the lack of data infrastructure in Canada, or it is because the market in Canada is just too tiny for Apple, iPhone seems to have a hard time getting to our Canadian friends. One of the common ways for Canadians to get an iPhone is the buy one in US and unlock it. But that also void the warranty by Apple at the same time. Users have to take great risk not to brick their iPhone.

Let's predict if the beautiful iPhone will eventually arrive in Canada in 2008.

    Rogers just announced that iPhone will go to Canada later in 2008. They didn't say exactly when:

    Apple needs to sell some phone to Canadians during Christmas, so I vote for yes.

    Nice prediction topic. This topic is a lot quieter than I expected. Maybe no one cares if the Canadians get the iPhone?

    Apple had been slow in negotiating iPhone carrier in counties outside of US. My confidence is low.

    iPhone is old news. And Canada doesn't have it yet. That's weird.

    I thought Rogers Canada is mostly owned by AT&T. Wouldn't AT&T wants to continue its partnership with Apple in Canada?!

    This is getting hopeless. Canada won't get it even after iPhone 2.0 comes out.

      Yes, Canadians can unlock iPhones from US apple stores, but I heard some features like voicemail still cannot be hacked.

      Also, a lot of Canadians end up "bricking" their iPhones with firmwares that are too new to be hacked.
