Rogers made a vow to open up their support to 'social media' and post any reasonable comment. This is a very progressive position, but some comments don't seem to be making it through the moderation queue. | Rogers made a vow to open up their support to 'social media' and post any reasonable comment.

<blockquote>We are holding them responsible because we are stuck buying our handsets from them. Clearly, Rogers doesn’t have the clout many other carriers do. Rogers has had to delay their Galaxy S launch until mid October, here in NYC they are having a buy one, get one free promotion. What would be the best solution? Making it reasonable for us to buy our own handsets on the free market, without paying double the cost for the obligatory subsidy fee. Why is the market stuck on subsidized handsets anyway? I haven’t needed to have anything subsidized since I was a teenager. So, yes, this is the fault of the carriers, and if there were a free market for handsets the situation would be much better.</blockquote> | |||

<blockquote>I am in the states and couldn’t help but notice there is a [http://zooid.org/~vid/roger.jpg promotion for the Galaxy S from one carrier — buy one get one free]. Doesn’t sound like much of a ‘manufacturing delay’ to me.<br />I cannot say I am disappointed with Rogers as my expectations are low. I used to characterize myself as a victim, now I’m past that, lying on the ground with an arrow in my back, totally beaten down without any hope of any sensible plan in this world of entertainment handsets when I need a professional one (Android with keyboard), and contests when I just want fair pricing and terms. Which I’ve articulated numerous times and it just makes sense, including in the face of this “manufacturing delay” — let me buy my own handset on the free market, and offer me an unsubsidized plan. Sound fair? Yeah I know it does, but I also know I can take my ideas to that subterranean fiery place so you can focus on people looking for the shiny.<br />I hope you hear me moderator and I can cry on your shoulder, because I can’t expect much else and for my two smartphone lines ($2400 a year) I’m certainly buying you dinner. | |||

"What are your thoughts on the new service? How have you changed the ways you enjoy video entertainment?" | |||
I realize (and it’s clear from the inclusion of statistics) that Rogers doesn’t need to focus on what any individual wants. But I don’t want just first run movies, trendy sports and series in an exclusive community, I want world scale choice and pricing with the knowledge and chaos of the Internet. I have yet to see any Rogers promotions that have been aimed at me, aside maybe from the initial “open,” “revolution” Android ads, which unfortunately proved rather false. While I am not included in “nearly 60 per cent of 18-34 year-old,” I am pretty sure the majority of people would simply like Roger to provide reliable, fast, competitive Internet service so we can choose from a global palette of options. Rogers should certainly participate in extra offerings, but not to the detriment to the bigger idea. | I realize (and it’s clear from the inclusion of statistics) that Rogers doesn’t need to focus on what any individual wants.

There's nothing, anywhere that says "consumer phones are meant to be locked down." That's more tenuous than Rogers' statement that their offering would be a "revolution" and "open." A statement that some of us would like them to follow up on, rather than making excuses on their behalf that accepts a dysfunctional status quo. | ||
I have no desire to own the Nexus One as I want a keyboard device. Further, the formula doesn't make sense, since I'd be continuing to pay monthly subsidization fees to Rogers, effectively nearly paying double for my handset. | I have no desire to own the Nexus One as I want a keyboard device.
