From the post: Quote: |
...the next big Canadian wireless provider that is building a UMTS / HSPA network with service planned for all provinces and territories excluding Québec...
| Almost Canada-wide. Fourth quarter, 2009. No idea about SAF.

i just had a quick peek on hofo and the dude that posted those pictures up stated they're gonna have some wicked features:
NO SAF and 911 Fees
Walkie Talkie across network
Fast TV Streaming
Unlimited US / Canada SMS
FREE Call Display and Name Display
etc.
However, you can not buy a new unlocked handset and swapping cards without informing the company. Also, no coverage in Quebec.

sucks that you can't easily swap sim cards in and out of phones...that's a deal breaker for me, everything else is pretty awesome
o well i guess i'll stick to my fido retention deal
also read on hofo that the phone is subsidy, and software locked
u can buy an unlock code for $49 after 12 months of service..
however, this just reminded me the 'leaked' rogers 2009 roadmap on hofo which was claimed to be fake
this 'leak' looks exactly the same as that rogers one... so its a little sketchy

They can allow only registered IMEI numbers to work on their network, hence preventing foreign IMEI's.

FYI all phone companies that claim no SAF will actually charge you another fee equal to the SAF but just call it something else (eg. Fido)
