As lreeves points out, you can get a SIM card from Wind (Wind SIM card is free, unlike the usual $30 for a small piece of plastic with a few transistors inside).

You will have to sign up to a Wind voice plan though, as you can't get a data-only plan for your phone. Minimum is $15/month which gets you 100 minutes and 50 texts, + $35/month for unlimited data (5GB/month, then speed severely reduced). Unlimited texts to Canada/US is another $5/month. No hidden charges. I use Wind and have been quite pleased so far. Coverage was shaky for the first few weeks but is now pretty good (everywhere I've been in the GTA I have managed signal, and downtown is rock solid for me on an N900).
