As for other competition, after the wireless auction thing, some new companies are supposed to start operating soon which might help with that. Not to mention with Bell and Telus backing a system that didn't pan out worldwide, it's giving Rogers a monopoly on things like the iPhone and it's been suggested that Apple is really not happy with how Rogers is doing things. But until the new companies start up and/or Bell/Telus finally switch over to GSM(?) (I'm blanking on what the two technologies were called), we're kinda screwed. Both situations are coming but who knows how long it will take.

Then again, you probably know all this already and in better detail lol.
