iPhone Cruncher

Rogers Wireless of Canada has revealed its new data plans for the iPad, offering $35 for a limited 5GB/month plan. The new plans are $15 for 250MB or $35 for 5GB which should be something that could get the ire of subscribers, particularly the ones who are heavy users for data.

While Rogers is walking on thin ice with these new iPad plans, expect other carriers to step up and offer something better.

Getting a good (at least sounding) deal will always be their preference. Let’s see how Rogers fares with this one!
