I really wonder if Wind will have an agreement with Vidéotron to sell locally and for Vidéotron to do the same nationally... Which wouldn't make much sense for either uhm.

Probably just a roaming agreement, but then, if it's "free" I could get a plan/sim online and use it... I'm really eager to see both start operating a real network!

I'm late in the news, what's SO nice about this wind mobile? Why should you get a Wind SIM card instead of, let's say, a rogers sim card?
Please help the noob.

AH! Well, that would be great haha! But I still have a 2 year agreement with rogers
Will Wind mobile work in quebec? Montreal, etc...? Can we know what plans they will have? I heard somewhere that Wind won't work in quebec
If it's nice, I'll just break the agreement

Nop, won't, check the montreal thread i guess but still, it'll push competitive price across the country (i hope).

Yeah, I suppose... Service providers have different plans depending on the province where they are, but I also think it'll bring a lot of competition... Is EDGE really that bad on the N900? Can you watch a video on youtube without it being choppy? Is instant messaging fast enough, and can you browse on facebook easily?
P.S. Sorry for all the questions, that's all I can do until I get mine, but newegg is out of stock haha

It might eventually, but it looks like it will start in Toronto and Calgary first. Then extend to other cities.

Edge is not that bad it is about 50% of 3G speed but wifi is faster than 3G so if you have wifi that best, and by the way a youtube video is choppy on wifi the sound is ok the video is not steady. That is on Wifi so on 3g maybe it is more chopy.

It think with the news of wind Rogers will a pressure to use their 1700 frequency
