And now the latest kick in the crotch by Canadian Cell phone companies... Telus and Bell are starting to charge for INCOMING text messages. I'm sure they will sell you a plan that includes them a certain number for a nominal fee.
So far Rogers and MTS (the other provider in Manitoba, likely soon to go national) "_currently_ have no plans to charge for incoming text messages".
Oh, and if you want caller id on your shiny new Roger's JebusPhone, it'll be an extra charge of $15 or $20 for the so called "Value Pack".
Just wait until they start to try and recoup the billions they are spending on the auction for more frequencies. That is going to be a laugh riot.
