Right now in the United States they only have the choice of AT & T. Unless the iPhone is Jail Broken.

But in Canada you can get an iPhone from Rogers, Fido, Bell and Telus.  its great for Canadians to have choice but who should you choose?

Rogers Bell or Telus iPhone?

Well do you care about voice calling more than you do about data?

Rogers has better voice quality.  Bell has a faster Data Network.

You can select any 2 iPhones. 1 Rogers and 1 Bell and do the speedtest.net App test. Bell gets a faster result.

Select any 2 iPhones and have a conversation with either Carrier and Rogers sounds more clear.  Bell has digital hiss and echo and pings.

The other point of note is that for out of plan minutes for local calling you have to pay $0.40 per minute with Bell but $0.35 with Rogers.

Telus and Fido are lower cost variants of Bell and Rogers respectively.  Its arguable that they are the best deal since they leverage their big brothers networks.

HSPA Bell Coverage as shown by this really biased chart

The average cost of an iPhone contract with Rogers or Bell  is $60.00 to $75.00 per month.

This includes, unlimited Texting, 6 GB of Data and between 150 to 250 minutes with Evenings and Weekends for free starting at 6:00 PM.  Be sure to let me know if you have a better plan than that.
