Any news on whether their will be change to the data plans? 30$ for 6gb is garbage compare to the rest of the world still.... and the dataplan is it for iphone only or can i use it with my n95?

maps are not built into the phone
google maps is hte navi software
$30 for ATT is 5gb softcap, little did we know, all these "unlimited data" has a soft cap
so 6gb for hardcap is quite a bit
even with gps running wherever you go, its really really really hard to go over 6gb
not many ppl can do 2gb just surfing at home on a pc!

u cannot load the maps onto the phone with google maps
data plans have their own contract...the cancellation fee is $5 per month to a max of 100..
the $30/6gb of data will end aug31
teh same applies to the BB plan

the new iphone 3g is a huge dissapointment.... hopefully third party software will make up fir its limitation soon.
last question can i use the $30/6gb data plan with grey phones? 3g only or 2g too? I'm getting seeing mix answer of RFD and Hofo
i got tire of the first iphone in 3 months i'm expecting the same life expectancy for this new one i would like to use the data plan on any future phone i might get

You can load the maps into your iphone actually, but you need to use software to capture your own map from google map.
Then, upload the map into your iphone and use iLM to make the maps works in your iphone google map.
But the search function wont work, you have set the bookmark first.

so it seems customers who blocked their internet can still access internet and are currently being charged.. i guess that's why they made all those customers who didn't opt for a data plan sign a data waiver..

the phones cant be blocked from data for what i understand
one accidental tap on a app
and u get dinged that little bit
so yes
the waivers were to prevent ppl form bitching
and so rogers/fido can charge like..8000w/o lowering a biklll

well, for the 1st gen iphones you can get applications that allow you to turn off certain services (wifi, edge, SSH, etc...) I don't know if those work for 3g though.
