Also, Rogers offers a unlimited internet plan as well for $7 a month. People are still going to pick the IPhone because it’s an Apple product, even if the IPhone plans are not unlimited. This isn’t a real competitor for it, and it will not make Rogers lower there plans. And, have you heard of the N95? It came a little late but it does all the same stuff as the IPhone, just no touch screen and unlimited internet for the same $7. Rogers offers the LG Vu, an almost identical phone to the Samsung.

The bad: The Instinct doesn't hold a candle to the iPhone. It is a pretty looking phone with a touch screen. The similarities end there. No wifi, lame email, weak browser, no gestures, etc. Now, when the HTC Dream with Google Android shows up on Bell with $10 unlimited data... then we'll be getting somewhere!
