US Residents don't care, the rest of us do.
I know that there's a lot of cell phone package competition going on in the US right now, so when you have an iPhone in your hand in the US, why wouldn't you want to go with AT&T? I mean, considering what we pay for data here in Canada (up to $300 for "unlimited" with limitations), the US should be happy they are the directed customers.
However, we do not have the opportunity to buy the iPhone in Canada, and therefore, unlocking it and using it on our only GSM provider is necessary if we want to use it.
If Apple wants to actually work to circumvent the hacking process, they should be concentrating on circumventing the hackers who want to use the phone in places where they can actually BUY it and activate it legally.
Leave us Canadians alone, Apple. We want to use your phone, but you and Rogers won't let us. Thanks for dangling the most interesting piece of technology in the past 5 years in front of your faces, and then pulling it away.
