Does anybody know of a graph or a map that shows the reliability of Rogers' service in Canada?
Would give a good idea on if one should wait or not.

Rogers.com - Canadian Network Coverage

Rogers has the best digital coverage overall. Bell bests them in some analog-only areas. But in some areas it's best to ask those who actually use the service.

There's a fool's errand, at the moment: viz. the many references in other threads that confirm that you will *not* find out the iPhone launch date from Rogers until the iPhone actually launches.

Also, note the above graphic is from Rogers' own site; you really should speak with actual local users to confirm quality coverage in your area.

My money's on this theory: the "gmug" account has been hijacked.

Oh. I guess that's true, as I had checked with someone that lives in Okotoks (where I am moving), and he says the service isn't really good, compared to the 5/5 that Rogers gives for that area. :(
