Rogers iPhone Data plan - 100-200mb?

Here's an interesting article from the National Post. They are suggesting that the Rogers iPhone data plan may include 100-200 mb's a month. What a joke that would be. 100 mb lasts one week if that. I think they should at least offer us 1 gb if not unlimited.

Here's piece from the article:

"Apple may agree to a “virtually unlimited” plan with Rogers for $35 a month (excluding voice) with data usage of 100 or 200 megabytes per month, the analyst suggested, adding that this should be more than sufficient. Apple could also insist that an “all-in” voice and data plan include things like free call features. Combined plans such as this, with 250 to 500 anytime minutes and unlimited evenings/weekend calls after 9 p.m., may cost $80 to $100 per month, Mr. Allen suggested."

Obviously this guy does not know what he is talking about or hasn't used an iPhone. Apple will not agree to 100 - 200 mb a month. In Ireland, there is a cap on the iPhone data use, but it is 1 gig. 200 mb is silly and would be an insult to us as consumers - like everything else they offer in regards to data isn't an insult though.

Here's what I want from the Rogers iPhone plan
- Unlimited data
- 250 daytime mins
- Unlimited evenings and weekend
- Caller ID and visual voicemail included.
- Unlimited texts

Will there be Rogers visual voicemail? Better be.

How much would I pay for that? I'd pay $80 a month. Maybe a little more. Anything higher is ridiculous and would be pushing customers away.

What do you think Rogers will offer us for the iPhone plan and how much would you pay?
