Canadian iPhone data pricing revealed (Official)

Well, there are no unlimited data packages. Curious as to what people think of the plans being offered from Rogers. Here's the press release from their site.

Starting at $60 for voice and data combined

TORONTO, June 27 /CNW/ - Rogers Wireless, Canada's largest wireless
carrier with Canada's fastest wireless network, today announced a variety of
voice and data pricing plans for the much-anticipated Apple(R) iPhone 3G set
to hit stores on Friday, July 11. With monthly plans starting at $60 for voice
and data combined, Rogers offers a wide selection of high value price packages
to meet the needs of Canadian iPhone aficionados. All price plans require a
three-year contract.
iPhone 3G combines all the revolutionary features of iPhone with 3G
networking that is twice as fast(*) as the first generation iPhone, built-in GPS
for expanded location based mobile services, and iPhone 2.0 software which
includes support for Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync and runs the hundreds of
third party applications already built with the recently released iPhone SDK.
"As Canada's leading wireless carrier, Rogers is thrilled to not only
bring the iPhone 3G to Canada but to make it affordable and accessible to as
many customers as possible," says John Boynton, SVP and Chief Marketing
Officer, Rogers Wireless. "We've designed a pricing structure that offers
affordable, flexible voice and data packages so Canadians can truly unleash
their iPhone 3G experience on Canada's fastest wireless network."
