October Rogers & Fido iPhone plans

After initially offering poor iPhone plans, Fido & Rogers offered us a 6 GB data plan for $30 to appease us geeks. That unfortunately is no longer available, but October also brought us new iPhone plans that seem much more reasonable:

$60
250 weekday minutes
Unlimited evenings and weekends
Unlimited with Fido/Rogers customers
No long distance minutes
75 text messages (sent)
1 GB data
Visual voicemail

$75
400 weekday minutes
Unlimited evenings and weekends
Unlimited with Fido/Rogers customers
Unlimited long distance with Fido/Rogers customers
100 text messages (sent)
2 GB data
Visual voicemail

I personally generally use less than 0.3 GB per month, but that's because I rarely use audio streaming applications with my iPhone, and I don't use YouTube much either. However, if Apple finally allows us those data tethering applications (again) so that one can surf on a laptop through the iPhone, then I would use a lot more data in certain months. Rogers' and Fido's 6 GB data plans specifically allow tethering.
