News out of Canada via Mobile Syrup shows that Canada may be opening up.
Three stories that lead me to that conclusion:
1) Primus’s relationship with Rogers is expanding. As an MVNO Primus will “increase to cover 94% of Canada, enhanced voice and text packages, picture messaging (MMS), web browsing and ring tones are all coming.”
2) Dave Wireless, a new player in the North of the Border mobile world, which plans to basically just be better than the long, established players.
3) The potential arrival of a new player called Wind, which may have an uphill battle, but one that may reveal a lot more about the Canadian wireless industry.
