Our North America brothers up north will finally be receiving their own iPhones. Rogers, a telecommunication company in Canada will be the initial carriers of the iPhone. It has been uncertain as to whether Canada would ever receive the iPhone.

Since the unveiling of the iPhone in the US, Canada has had to sit back and wait for a carrier to use the handset. No details have been given by Rogers, but the expect to have the iPhone available by the end of 08. Rogers was the first Canadian telecom to show interest in the iPhone after the 2007 release. They promised they would sell the handset, but they hadn’t released any progress until now.

It’s either a big coincidence, or a ploy for publicity, but the Toronto Star started a rumor about Rogers selling the iPhone by July. This rumor was started before the official Rogers’ announcement.

As soon as more updates from Rogers comes in, FreeMacBlog will be posting it.
