Rogers - Screwing Canadian iPhone customers since 2008

Monday, June 30th, 2008

If you are a Canadian who is (was) hoping to pick yourself up an iPhone on July 11th, Rogers Communciations just announced their voice and data plans.  WOW - they are totally screwing us Canadians over - just look at the plan comparisions between the US, UK and Canada. If you’re as outraged and disappointed as I am you should head on over to  RuinedIphone.com where you can sign a petition and open letter to Steve Jobs.  If anyone from Rogers is reading this post (not likely but I’ll say it anyhow) I will not be purchasing an iPhone nor a service plan from you.

If you must have the latest and greatest Firefox, you can always use the workaround of debugging with Safari or Internet Explorer!

I just now noticed that Parallels for OSX now has a Directory of Virtual Appliances that offers over 50 open source operating systems with specific features. For example there is an AMP Web Developer Suite that contains PHP/PERL/Python, MySQL and PostgreSQL all installed, configured, and ready to use.
