Also, checking mail on the mobile browser was awful. Now I've got the $45 Smartphone package with nationwide Fab 5, but I'm paying system access fee, etc. too. We really do get hosed over mobile Internet here in Canada  |
depends on ur research man...the best plan is out there... for example
my plan has:
350 day mins
unlimited eve + wknds at 6
unlimited text msging
caller id
voicemail
1/2 price system access fee (4.50)
cd long distance at .08/m
us long distance at .10/m
unlimited mobile browser (incompatible with my diamond, but would work on the touch)
now this plan isnt NEAR what u can get in the states, but i guarantee that this is THE best plan in the market(not really in the market, its exclusive) for canadians today.
and after taxes my bill is $28.42 as long as I dont go over my allotted usage. As for being charged by bell for cancelling, yes, i was charged 100 to cancel the data since it was an ispr, but id rather pay 100 up front than pay 30 over a period of 3 years. And since i already have all those features like the text, and sys fee, there isnt a point for me to add data for 30 bucks. wifi works everywhere too.
and as for gps services. to all those that suggest that the 100mb maps are sufficient as gps programs, i strongly disagree. tomtom has so many capabalities, finds hotles/restaurants/beaches/museums/ SOO MANY MORE THINGS. plus the ability to have EVERYTHING on the map, is amazing. Many gps applications dont work in downtown since they dont input one way streets into their applications.
i almost got into an accident using IGO 8 in downtown toronto cuz i almost turned in on a one way street. not even that, but i havent encountered ONE situation in which tomtom hasnt been able to find a place i searched for. the search is simplified, the ui is simple, and overall the whole program is MUCH superior to any other gps app on the market.
