CTV News is reporting that Canadian communications heavyweight Rogers Communications has announced that it has brokered a deal with Apple to sell the iPhone in Canada later this year.
"We're thrilled to announce that we have a deal with Apple to bring the iPhone to Canada," company president Ted Rogers is quoted saying in a statement. "We can't tell you any more about it right now, but stay tuned."
It can't come too soon for a sizable cohort of Canucks who have been looking enviously across the border and pining for the iPhone experience, although a few have jumped the gun and are using unlicensed "unlocked" iPhones that can work with Canadian mobile providers.
The question now is, "when?"
