Something chilling is up

Not that the presentation that I wrote about last week was really predicting this, but the rumour that is running around that suggests that Telus may be moving to GSM! (GN). So that convergence to a single 4G technology in Canada is certainly a reality. Why is this something that came to light today? Well, there are also thoughts floating around that the iPhone may come to Canada today as of the Steve-note. The only GSM carrier in Canada is Rogers, but as much as Rogers would have the monopoly based on technology, Telus has it made with it’s “image” – at least when it comes to advertising. I remember saying once that I would never buy an iPhone if it came out in Canada on Telus… confident that the company was stuck to the CDMA technology, but the storied floating around suggest that my iPhone fear may come to pass.
