Actually, I bought a Nokia N95 from Ebay and Rogers hooked it up with no prior contract at all. I think they charged me $25 for the card and the usual ridiculous hookup fees. I want an open phone but need one that meets certain criteria for it to be usable for me. This one isn't bad. Too bad they tried too hard on the styling for my tastes. I'm ok with a phone that creates a bit of wind resistance. Yes, I'm picky. ;) Nick _______________________________________________ clug-talk mailing list [email protected] http://clug.ca/mailman/listinfo/clug-talk_clug.ca Mailing List Guidelines (http://clug.ca/ml_guidelines.php) **Please remove these lines when replying
