Screen shot? Sorry don't believe that.
My order was 2 minutes after the store re-opened and mine hasn't shipped.
Although the "EDIT" button on the engraving has gone away so it must be in production now. I'm expecting prepared for shipment by days end.
If you want to discuss the iPhone goto that forum.
I called yesterday and complained to apple, Eaton Centre store has phones (but won't sell them) and meanwhile PAYING CUSTOMERS like me have not had ipod touch unit shipped, couldn't get $$ back, or free applecare or anything, all she would let me do is "File a complaint"
As my ship date is like everyone elses... The 28th.

I ordered my Touch on the 6th. It still says it hasn't shipped yet. This is getting pretty ridiculous. I wouldn't care about the wait so much if basically everyone south of the border wasn't getting their's now.
Seems as if Apple doesn't care for Canada's small market, or something. No iPhone and late shipping Touches...

Just called the Eaton Centre Store
It looks like they're not budging on the September 28th date. Their response is it will be RELEASED on the 28th, not before. So even if they have them, I doubt they're going to sell any which is really stupid IMO.
Maybe they can't get the online orders shipped yet so they're holding off on releasing in the store to avert the BS going on in the US (Stores getting before pre-orders)

I think the unlimited plan was with blackberries last i check(since RIM is out of waterloo, ON, they may have something there).
But all in all, i have a feeling the iphone will not make it to canada until 2 years at least later.
I was looking at Blackberry plans too, I think they topped out at even less (75mb).
I traded a bunch of Air Miles for Future Shop gift certificates to take a chunk out of the Ipod Touch price when they get there, but with this long wait and the fact that I could just skip on down to Washington State and pick up one right now for $50 less, I'm somewhat regretting it.
Who really NEEDS a data plan outside of business use. That's why I think its mostly business customers (I could be wrong). I'd love to pick up a smartphone, even if it's not an iPhone, but I can't justify the insane rates, and I don't see how anyone could unless they were using it for work.
You'll enjoy this link, then (I found it on the Rogers site, btw):

Yup, I doubt any of the Canadian providers will be changing their plans any time soon, which is really unfortunate. It'd probably be cheaper for me to sign up with AT&T in Michigan then to get on a Rogers data plan
I think we'd all love to see you proven wrong
Not counting on it, though! I think the best we can hope for is for someone else to set up a GSM network in Canada.Back on topic, my order still says Not yet shipped
