Canadian cable company Rogers Communications, which also happens to be the largest mobile provider north of the border, has rolled out its One Number service, offering consumers a single number for all their communications needs.

It's a unified communications play for consumers, but what's interesting about One Number is that it's built around a consumer's mobile number instead of a landline.

The service allows users to hand off mobile calls, texting, messaging and video chatting to their computer, continuing with a call without interruption. It also allows syncing of contacts seamlessly.

Vancouver-based CounterPath is a partner in the beta that allows users to connect to any Canadian phone number; Rogers customers can use the service from anywhere in the world.
