<p>Ok.  This definitely goes in the rant category.  I got myself a shiny new iPhone 3G.  I decided to play by the rules (this time): I didn&#8217;t unlock it, I didn&#8217;t jailbreak it.  Problem is, most of the apps I want are not available here.  What gives?</p>
<p>Just to name a few: Pandora, Loopt, AOL Radio, Google Mobile.  Why does technology always have to suck in Canada?  Not only we get ripped off BAD by mobile carriers, but we can&#8217;t do half of what people in the US can do with their mobile devices.</p>
<p>EDIT: and some more: Jott, Evernote, Yelp, Save Benjis, Ebay Mobile,</p>
