I think that you're going to see Telus and Bell slashing data plan rates on their smartphones in order to try to stem the tide of people rushing over to Rogers. Rogers will be forced to respond in kind.

Rogers has been gaining market share for some time now, and until Telus and Bell roll out GSM they are going to be playing catchup with Rogers.
Telus has unlimited DATA (as in FULL data) for $15, not the "personal email plan" that Rogers has (which doesn't include browser/application data).

They offered it only with a new Pearl in December, then extended it to all Blackberries in January and then extanded it to all smart phones after that. I don't think it's advertised anymore, but I know you can still get it if you're not a jerk when you ask for it... and especially if you're wanting to switch to them from Rogers.
