I love competition, Video on youtube is choppy because its still on Flash player 9.4 I believe, once it gets updated should be ok

The YouTube resolution probably matters too. The older 320x240 videos would likely be smoother than some of the newer hi-res videos that YouTube is apparently now favoring.

Just got off the phone with a Wind representative at one of the Kiosks in the Blockbusters they have, he told me that initially they won't be selling a plan with a SIM card only, so he says your going to have to get the phone with it. So either you have to wait or just buy the phone then resell it to someone else on Craig's list or get the phone as a present to a family member, wife wouldn't mind the new BlackBerry 9700 they offer.

But anything can change in 72 hours, I pleaded with the guy that there are alot of people like us, who have phones (Nokia N900) that are compatible already with the system and just want the SIM card, I told him to contact his district manager and relay that information to him. If enough of us call we'll show interest for them to just sell the SIM cards. Here are their phone numbers.

647-260-1402 Danforth Ave. Blockbuster Kiosk

647-260-1403 Liberty Village Blockbuster Kiosk

If we work as a community this will get done.3

Thanks Guys

Oh man, bummer about not being able to get a Wind SIM card.

There's still no sign of a live 3G network in Vancouver anyway, so <shrug> whatever.

Wow, that's utterly stupid... what are they thinking?
It's not like they are making money off the phones...

Can't wait to see how Vidéotron is going to disappoint in a similar way now haha ;-)
