Yeah, this "Fair for Canada" thing is complete BS. I'm excited for Verizon coming in and making prices lower. More competition would be awesome.

Also, Buckley is awesome!

If your interested in reading about all the BS, check out some of the articles posted on that site.

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Users cannot, and will not securely manage key material. Most users can't and the ones that can, wont.

Ouch, those current prices seem almost unreal. Hope you guys over in Canada can get some serious change in pricing if Verizon happens to get in.

 

As a reference, I pay ~$4 (29SEK) for 100/10 (no limits there), 29 TV Channels and unlimited calls (VoIP) within Sweden...

Cheers,

Linus

Haha yeah, these kinds of things are often included in apartments' rents (without actually adding the cost of the services), so it's basically just an added administrative fee. So I guess it's not quite a fair comparison.

Cheers,

Linus

They have absolutely no shame to treat us like idiots and that just annoys me

We need someone more like Google (my example is Fiber) but with a cellphone network

We could use it for our other services as well (Internet, cable, satellite) ~$120 for unlimited(fair use) cable internet at 14 down 2 up (that's with the $50 max overage charge on data above 125GB provided by Cogeco)
