Canada has, as I'm sure you're aware, some of the highest data transfer costs in the world. Then again, when you have an oligopoly with respect to wireless companies, what else do you expect?

As for your suggestion of hopping over the border, believe me -- its happening already, and has probably happened since its original launch. Now that the price has dropped and the Canadian dollar is about par, plus open-source unlocks of the iPhone seemingly abound, I expect this trend to continue to grow.

Might as well wait for 2nd generation iPhones with 3G and the hope that Apple will stop tying them to particular networks. Or you could just hop over the border and buy one, then crack it and use it on a network of choice... Pah! It’s not that great anyway.

You can also adjust the width and height to make it fit better. If you’re using wordpress, you’ve got to turn off the visual rich editor under options and then embed the code.
