wtf? I just activated a sim for my Mom a month ago. I've got the bill in front of me right now. $39.20 after taxes for activation and $10/mo for 60m airtime. I've never paid more than $35 with fido for activation.

To others, my data plan covers everything. voip, im, ssh, exchange sync, a-gps, blah blah. Perhaps they block these services on their branded phones, but I've never used a branded phone. You get what you pay for.

The $7 "unlimited internet" was actually a branded-only WAP option, which is how I got them to give me a cut rate on a real data plan under false representation.
