that's pretty good, how did you manage to get the call id and unlimited after 5?... i wish i had something like that.

I'm with virgin. 22/month + tax
100 mins,
250 outgoing text, unlimited incoming
unlimited evenings (7pm) and weekend

they don't offer my plan anymore, and there's nothing worth better switching to, but i guess it's good enough.

The MY5 is older, the rest of the plan is relatively newer.

$50 gets me this:

250 minutes local
Unlimited Evenings starting at 6 pm/Weekends starting on Friday
Unlimited incoming, Rogers to Rogers/Fido to Fido
Unlimited Canadian LD
100 minutes INTL
Unlimited SMS, MMS
6 GB Data
Caller ID, enhanced voice mail, etc etc


With Rogers, and I was rocking a Bell Samsung Galaxy S.

Pretty much a standard "old" plan. I added the 6 GB data recently though.

$25+tax per month with Wind. Unlimited talk and text nationwide. I'm not charged roaming when I move between Hamilton and Mississauga. Also, my friends with the cheaper Wind plans can call me for free, because Wind-to-Wind is always free.

You can't beat that. I even gave up my iPhone for a terrible Huawei U8100.

Reception's been great with no problems in Hamilton, so far. The only times I didn't get any signal were in Toronto in the subway and in hospital elevators, but it's not like I spend my days in the TTC. =P

It also helps that I pretty much live in a WIND zone, whether I'm off or on campus, so I don't have to worry about making calls outside a WIND zone.
