Just curious about the mobile cell plans you guys have around here and your monthly cost ( after any applicable taxes )

Telus Mobility
300 anything minutes
5pm early nights and weekends
unlimited text, picture, video
10 voicemail slots
conference calling
call waiting
call display

$43 cdn ( includes system access, 911 and taxes )

This is of course with a shit phone, will be upgrading to an iphone4 soon, extra $30/mo. for 1gb data ( seems like a raping to me )

iPhone 4
AT&T
Unlimited Calls/Text/Data
$100 per month

T-Mobile
Family plan
700 Anytime
Unlimited weekends & weeknights

US$30 + taxes, fees etc.

Palm Pre on Bell Mobility

Unlimited local minutes
Unlimited text/data messaging
500MB data
Call display
Voicemail

$50 CDN after taxes.

mazda, do you find 500mb to be enough for casual browsing/downloads?

I have 500mb as well, I've never gone over. I download the odd application here and there. However, I also disable image downloads in the browser (unless I need/want to see it specifically) since most images on pages are just ads or useless shit.

iPhone 4
AT&T
450 minutes anytime, 5000 nights, rollover
1500 texts
200 mb data
$69.99

If I could pay less for an even smaller voice package I would I had the unlimited data plan but I was only using 150mb or less per month so why not save $15 per month? I use my phone A LOT for online stuff but I'm on wifi a good bit of that.

China Mobile
15 USD prepaid usually works for at least a month.

US Cellular
Samsung Stride R330
Prepaid voice & text

I usually put about $20/mo. down on the thing, though I may end up switching to an actual plan if I keep using the phone as much as I did last month and this month so far...

500MB/month is more than enough.

I do a lot of web surfing, Youtubing, and online banking; plus I use Google Maps quite often. I've been using this phone for two months and haven't hit 70MB yet.

cool, i may opt for the 500mb/mo to save some $$$

Motorola Milestone
LongLines Wireless
Unlimited on-network calling with 1000 off-network minutes
Unlimited Text & Data
$64.99 + taxes, fees, etc.

Vodafone
270mins/text messages
unlimited data
€12,50 (US$ 15,85) a month

Remember, this is in the Netherlands and not the US. In the US you're always overcharged.

Sprint
Unlimited Family Share Data Plan
1500 anytime minutes per month
Unlimited text and data (owned, but I hear Sprint may start bandwidth throttling instead of data caps)
Unlimited voice on nights (7PM) and weekends
Unlimited mobile-to-mobile (any carrier/network)
This covers my phone, my wife's phone, and my daughter's phone, $129.99/mo(IIRC) before taxes and fees

What is considered unlimited mobile? talk and text? Seems like an amazing feature! Too bad Canada is years behind, or telus just likes to make fucking money

Also, the $43 i pay includes access fee, enhanced 911 and taxes of course

How often are you browsing/downloading for what you use?

well you only went over once, and not by much ?, during a 6 month period... Im with o2 in the UK and i dont think ive ever had a grilling for exceeding my allowance

unless they start charging your ass for every MB over?.... Just sounds like youll be paying twice the amount when you may only go over the limit twice a year ? (working on UK packages, think we only offer 500mb and 1gb ?)
