Is the service Voip?

is this a result of the VoiP lawsuit that gave rogers the power to change their pricing structure at any time while locking bell/telus to price changing effecting the whole country?

It should be VOiP. But I'm not sure yet. However, I've heard that Rogers is launching VOiP in july... so it sounds like it.

And I know that Rogers is also testing MPOiP (Mobile Phones Over IP) maybe it's a sign of 3G..

With the purchase of Sprint will ROGERS change Sprints name and offer a two tier system for landline usage? considering the fact that Ted Rogers has put his name on almost everything he bought (except fido for now) i think its an inevitability that we shall see the Rogers sign everywhere soon

yea.. I could imagine Rogers is changing the Canadian flag to the Rogers logo....

lol

For sure their will be bundle packs, but I don't know what will it be, since we don't have Rogers Cable/Internet/Landline over here in QC.
