I find it somewhat sad that I'll be (hopefully!) getting this amazing new device later this year, and I won't be able to use it the way it was designed, because I'm not giving into Godfather Rogers and his Mobile Mafia.
Maybe not... (I just saw this.)

The last time I was out your way was about 3 years ago. I had my Nextel iDEN handset and had coverage from VC to Kamloops and it picked up again in Jasper all the way out to Rainbow Lake.
If I made a voice call I got charged whatever the Telus/MiKE agreement with Nextel was. However just like in the states, I could access the internet with the phones browser all day and not be charged anything...

This was before I had my N800. Now I BT tether to my phone and again, no charge for usage. The connection is slow @ 19.2 but it works well for my needs. >> http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=14059

Now I'm thinkin' Boost mobile uses the same network and technology. I would buy one of >>these<< @ only $59 (real dollars ) and give it a try. If it doesn't work you could sell it on e-bay for a $10 loss...

If it does work, you'd be rockin' dude.
