        Customers who purchase an iPhone and sign up for a three-year
        contract any time between July 11 – when the device goes on sale
        – and the end of August will be eligible for a $30-per-month
        data plan giving them access to 6-Gigabytes of data. Rogers
        previously had charged $100 for a 6-GB plan.

Though mostly meant for the iphone, they say:

        The special plan is available not just to iPhone customers,
        but any Rogers customer with a 3G next-generation smart phone.

Though Rogers claims to have "listened to customer feedback", the article
also quotes:

        One blog posting on AppleInsider.com, a popular Apple rumour
        site, stated that Apple would divert some iPhone shipments that
        had been earmarked for Rogers to Europe for punishment over the
        negative publicity, leaving some Rogers outlets with as few as
        10 iPhones to sell.

Time to get a USB 3G dongle that works on laptop and openmoko. Though getting
the 3G subscription might allow you the same rates on the 2G network perhaps?
