Bell Canada announces unlimited data

Bell Canada has some life in it yet. The Toronto Star reports this morning that, in a dramatic move for the Canadian market, Bell will start offering unlimited data plans for the HTC Touch for just $7/month. Rather than offer this plan to everyone, Bell is restricting it to consumers only. Business users still get socked for big bucks on devices like BlackBerry:
While Bell’s $7 unlimited plan runs the risk of upsetting its subscribers who use competing devices such as the BlackBerry, which don’t come with unlimited data options, [Bell VP] Bazerghi stressed that the lack of a full keyboard means the HTC Touch will hold little appeal for email-crazed business-types.
I guess the tean at RIM needs to pay a visit to those crazy Bellheads and let them know, again, that they’re in the consumer space now with products like Pearl and Curve.
Over to you, Mr. Rogers.
