Rogers got a lot of heat from Canadian customers and Apple for the expensive and restrictive monthly plans for the iPhone 3G. Today along with their iPhone 3G launch plans the carrier announced a sweet promotional offer for customers who activate by August 31st on a three year contract.
Rogers offers a data-only offering of 6GB of data for $30 per month that can be added to any in-market voice plan.

Canadian still have to commit to the unusual long 3 year contract, but the initial pricing for data is nice.

Starting at 8:00 am July 11th, Canadians will be able to purchase the new iPhone 3G at special launch day events to be held at six Rogers Plus stores across the country.
The following Rogers Plus stores in these cities will open their doors at 8:00 a.m. (all times local) on Friday, July 11th for advance purchases of the Apple iPhone 3G:
Toronto: 112-10 Dundas Street East
Montreal: 1015 rue St. Catherine Ouest
Ottawa: 690 Bank Street
Halifax: Unit 265, 7001 Mumford Road
Calgary: 5244 Falsbridge Gate, NE
Vancouver: 2097 West Broadway


Rogers even serves some early bird breakfast at the above stores.
