many providers here are dropping 2g this decade..
which I think is mad...(90% of the country has no 3g 4g service)
a few will still provide 2g...
looking at a service map (regardless of provider..) of canada you'll see what I mean...

Agree, 2G is basic necessity also for energy saving.
This story reminds me of the similar: who needs FM, all cars now have BT (yeah good luck with your rental in Africa or South East Asia..)

I would have never expected this

How about Blackberry buying out Jolla. Is this likely?

most of canada doesn't have 3 or 4 ...
except near dense populated areas...
many providers here are dropping 2g this decade..
which I think is mad...(90% of the country has no 3g 4g service)
a few will still provide 2g...
looking at a service map (regardless of provider..) of canada you'll see what I mean...
I think it still would make a good emergency phone at worst imo.
but it would be better if it had 3g as well...
Now a country like germany, britain, etc..I would imagine it would make more sense to go with something with 3 or 4 g ...since (I'm guessing here...) you prolly have blanket coverage wherever you go.
Smaller countries with a high population ...I'd imagine are easier to do such extensive coverage.
