While there’s still no official word from Apple, the Toronto Star reports that Rogers Communications are hoping to use the iPhone as part of their new campaign pushing touch-screen phones. The campaign is due to be rolled out sometime in May or July.

That would put one of the world’s most talked-about devices in the pockets of Canadians right around the time that Apple Inc. is expected to roll out an updated version of the iPhone that runs on so-called third generation, or “3G,” networks.

The timing certainly fits. The question is: Is there anyone left in Canada who hasn’t hopped over the boarder and already bought one ?
