I have had so many people mention what they have heard or read about the iPhone coming to Canada to me in the past couple of days. 90% of it has been incorrect, or included speculation which is completely off base.

This morning I received an article via email from IT Business which purports to share "Canadian Technology News", which frustrated me, as the author clearly did not understand some of the points he was trying to make, and utilized sources who clearly are not qualified to talk on the subject.

The author states in the third paragraph that...

"BlackBerry's lock on the corporate smart phone market is assured until security issues and data transmission rates are sorted out, say local technology experts."

Now I agree with this statement, however it creates the basis for the article, which the author, Nestor E. Arellano, sets off to prove with poorly researched sources.

First of all Arellano states that

"The company was widely viewed as the most likely provider to offer the iPhone in Canada ever since the device was developed."
