Rogers announces new, still expensive BlackBerry data plans

While Canada, or more specifically Rogers has never been know for their fairly priced data plans for phones, they have just added a few additional plans designed for the BlackBerry. These do seem to be an improvement, but sadly they are not as low-priced as we would have hoped, and they still are not offering any unlimited plans, of course from what we have seen in the past nothing is ever truly unlimited, so that may be a blessing in disguise.

The new plans offered include a 300MB option for $30, or 1GB for $60, 3GB for $80 and a 6GB plan for $100. While expensive I think most people would be surprised how little data they actually use, and most would probably be OK with the 300MB plan if not the 1GB for sure, but at the same time it would be nice have an unlimited offer and just not have to worry.

Lets just hope the soon-to-be-released 3G capable BlackBerry Bold will not encourage users to take full advantage of data use and start going over their service plan, because one thing is for sure, overages are expensive.
