    No. The N900 will not work with Bell or Telus HSPA network. There is no GSM backdrop, it is all 850/1900MHz UMTS. No GSM. It will only work on Rogers/Fido or WIND, provided you have coverage.

    Someone on the Wind forums claims to have had word from Nokia that Nokia will offer the N900 in Canada 'very soon'. This would be handy for any warranty support.

    SN Traders in Mississauga sells them and all of the latest phones for all networks. Got my N900 there.

    Ok so now I use my N900 on Rogers 2.5G but my contract expires in 7 months so if Wind gonna support 3G for N900 does that mean I can just buy data package and use my own N900 or it will come with new N900s only ?

    You can get just a new account from WIND and pop their SIM card into your existing N900. Works like a charm :-)

    As lreeves points out, you can get a SIM card from Wind (Wind SIM card is free, unlike the usual $30 for a small piece of plastic with a few transistors inside).

    You will have to sign up to a Wind voice plan though, as you can't get a data-only plan for your phone. Minimum is $15/month which gets you 100 minutes and 50 texts, + $35/month for unlimited data (5GB/month, then speed severely reduced). Unlimited texts to Canada/US is another $5/month. No hidden charges. I use Wind and have been quite pleased so far. Coverage was shaky for the first few weeks but is now pretty good (everywhere I've been in the GTA I have managed signal, and downtown is rock solid for me on an N900).
