RogersA $150 data plan on Rogers is rumoured to be landing on June 16th. for those who really like to hit the airwaves hard. This is probably more geared towards those using the Rocket Stick, but I could see it as a solid option for those who tether with a smartphone as their primary internet connection. Still, that’s a very small segment; even I don’t see myself going over my current 6 GB plan, which was recently resurrected for the Android Magic and Dream launch. Maybe if you could split the plan across two or three devices, then it might make a little more sense. How much mobile data do you guys use a month, on average?

    This makes no sense when compared to Rogers current plans.

    If I got the Flex Data plan that’s currently on offer, I could use 15GB in a month, or even $25GB in a month, and the Flex Plan data fees are capped at a $100/mo maximum total.

    Why would I pay $150 for 15GB when the current plan structure gives me 15GB and more for just $100?

    The only way this new plan would make sense is it Rogers decides to kill off the Flex pricing structure — which would be BIG news for heavy data consumers.

    I currently use around 5.8Gbs of mobile internet. I’m always on 3G and I constantly tether.
