New Rogers data plans en route for hardcore users

Rogers Oh, man. It’s so great that those Christmas deals weren’t just a one-off exception to the rule of crappy Canadian data rates. We’re getting word that some new PC card data plans from Rogers are on the way, which could point to some better BlackBerry rates, too. What kind of plans you ask? How does $100 for 5 GB sound? Well, considering we’re getting 200 MB for that much right now, it sounds pretty sweet. That’s the top tier mind you – things start at $65 for 1 GB, $75 for 2 GB, and $85 for 3 GB, capping off at $100 for 5 GB. Best part, instead of overage charges per kilobyte, you’ll now get bumped up to the next tier automatically if you go over, which sounds totally fair. Right on, Rogers!

The Engadget Article says for PC Cards..not for BlackBerrys. I think BlackBerry users will have to wait a bit longer still for reasonable data rates.

It’s progress for sure, but to take Toronto Mayor David Miller’s comments completely out of context:

“We have to demand better.”
