The additional per MB rate is quite reasonable in Canada. But US roaming is still pricey and international data is just INSANE.

Now that the plans have been released I can honestly say I'm disappointed. Why in 2009 is it still taboo to include caller ID? Looks like Telus just lost a long time customer.

Maybe they have some good plans. These Plans sound very much like the old one. $65.00 gets you only 1 GB of data. In U.S.A you get unlimited aka 6GB of data. CRTC are you listening???!!!!!!

Basically the same as existing plans after all said and done. Anything to make their filthy shareholders happy. Hope that Clement piece o'work does something to bring the Wind into town. I'm sick of getting gouged. Beyond pathetic. Basically the same as existing plans after all said and done. Anything to make their filthy shareholders happy.

And free calls from 9pm is a joke. The big 3 have come out with pretty much identical plans, not much to choose from. This was their last chance before the new competitors come in, and as far as I'm concerned they blew it. Very disappointed that Caller ID is not included. And free calls from 9pm is a joke.

I hope it's around $15 'cause then that'd be AWESOME! It’d be nice to know what the data addon for smartphones would be. I hope it’s around $15 ’cause then that’d be AWESOME!

A lot of the feature phones are good 3G phones with a fair bit of functionality so there should be a 'feature phone' plan that includes data. Can I use a ‘smartphone’ plan with a ‘feature phone’?

Likewise, evenings could be earlier and text messages included, but you can't win it all. Anybody know if the data allows for tethering?

So, even at $100/month, they're still going to nickle & dime you for caller ID? Wow, three national carriers now "competing" with the same network capabilities and phones, and not a decent plan among all of them. Very sad indeed. These plans are beyond pathetic.
