Since there are now a lot more Canadians with iPads, as of this weekend, I thought it would be a good idea to go over jailbreaking, and why it might be for you.

Let’s start fresh. What is jailbreaking? Jailbreaking … Read More
Update May 31/10: This sale is a worldwide sale. Not just the USA. Confirmed by ZAGG. Happy shopping!
Did you finally purchase your iPad? Still looking for a case? The Apple iPad Case in my opinion an awesome case. If you aren’t a fan of bulky cases, then you will need the invisibleSHIELD from ZAGG. I use the invisibleSHIELD on my iPhone 3GS, MacBook, and iPad. … Read More

As it stands, there are two confirmed wireless carriers supporting the iPad, Bell and Rogers, and one wireless carrier that is sort of flaky right now, Telus. The plans … Read More
Canadians pre-ordered their iPads on May 10th. The arrival date for orders was supposed to be today but it seems that a FedEx delay has caused many orders to be late and not on time. This is a disappointment to everyone who pre-ordered if they can’t get the iPad on the launch date. What’s the point of pre-ordering if you could’ve gone to a store today and nabbed … Read More
I finally received my iPad….whoppeee! Now I’m in the process of setting it up. Rogers has conveniently posted a guide to assist iPad users with the setting up the 3G data plan.
The guide covers first-time activation, managing accounts, and offers details on data usage limits, plan cancellation and more.

How to activate on the Rogers network:
Update 1: Looks like Best Buy “tickets” indicate a $50 for 5GB plan from Telus. Also, the first month of activation on 3G is unlimited data. Also reports of a $35 setup fee.

The wait is over everyone! It’s been quite the tumultuous ride trying to uncover iPad news for Canadians. At first, our breaking news report of an April 24th launch in Canada was blown away when Apple delayed the iPad release for International customers till late May. Our neighbours down south welcomed the iPad with open arms on April 3rd.
Finally, news came that Canadians would be able to Read More
