Some very interesting coverage maps have leaked out from Bell… They clearly show Bell’s new HSPA+ coverage areas in all of its ‘blue’ glory. While not really coast-to-coast (c’mon Bell, what about Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Northern Ontario, and the territories???), check out the dominance Bell appears to have over Rogers. I’d love to attest to the fact that these maps are correct, and while I have little doubt that they are, I’d love to hear from folks in the areas shown here to confirm these claims.

By the looks of things Bell is slapping Rogers in the face continually. It is no contest at the moment.

Rogers I’m looking at you…what’s your next move? Have a Rebuttal?

Note: If you’re looking at these maps and are thinking ‘jeez, there sure are a lot of white areas with zero coverage’… you’re right. Canada is a freakin’ HUGE country, and there are a lot of ‘bald spots’ with little to no population… only beautiful Canadian wilderness. That’s the deal.
