my new cell phone & plan...
#1
i'm just heading out now to pick up my new cell phone...haven't been shopping for one in over 3 years, and i've been using this old POS that finally died last week. so my buddy hooked my up with (what i think) is a pretty sweet deal....
the phone: http://www.bell.ca/shop/en_CA_AB/613...ails?tab=SPECS
and the plan:
- through BELL
- $35 /month (no hidden fees)
- 350 mins
- free even & wknds (start @ 6pm, end at 8am)
- free call display
- free voice mail
- unlimited text message
- unlimited mobile internet browser
- no activation fee
- 3 year contract ($99 opt out fee)
- free phone (above)
- long dist in canada --> $0.10/min
like i said...can't really tell if this is a good deal or not cause i haven't been phone shopping in a while...what do you guy think?

x3 ...I had that phone returned it in 2 weeks cuz I could get no reception...got a samsung a660 instead ..love it cept u can't hear the ringer.
Woulda got a samsung camera phone but I have a nice digital camera and I figure its just more that can go wrong with the phone.

Plan looks good, but you may be better off opting out of the contract. Just think about how big a piece of junk your phone will be in 3 years. I've had mine for not even a year and it is starting to act up. It is in for warranty right now. The $99 will save you a lot of hassle in the long run.

I had an AudioVox. It was the worlds largest POS. I love my LG5550. I get reception everywhere. It is a little pricey. I would look at a Samsung or an LG. Really I would not get any current phone that is not using the Qualcomm chip set

go gsm.. go rogers...
go to ebay and buy an unlocked phone

somthing like this... may sound expensive now.. but you don't have to worry about a contract.. and the features it has will definitly get you through the next 3 years (my buddy has a 2gb memory stick duo.. watches movies.. plays mp3s.. does absolutely anything and everything you could ever want from a phone and more!!)
also plays live tv when it becomes available in canada
