It is VERY low of both companies to stifle competition like that, and personally THE DAY that WIND mobile starts up I will be leaving Telu$ for them! I've also convinced all my friends and family (extensive wireless users) to do the same as I'm their tech go-to guy.

I doubt they will survive... either go belly up before they launch.. or bell, telus and rogers to buy them up.. Also the technology.. wow, public wireless.. instead of building cell towers.. throwing access points all over ontario.. bad business plan, come on! in building coverage might not be as good.. and imagine the challenge of putting up thousands of access points all over the gta.. these guys tech I doubt will work on 400/401 without those cell towers.. still bet 1 or 2 of these new guys are gone by jan 1 2011... hmm interesting… all the new cell carriers not telling us who’s really funding them..

I am even not sure why CRTC exists, never done anything good. It is sadder to see CRTC bending backwards to make sure R_T_B mafia stays alive.

Obviously they realize their stranglehold on us is coming to an end. It’s sad to see the incumbents stooping so low to stop any new competition from coming in.
