[Clug-tech] OT: iPhone vs Android

[John Jardine]

Hey,

If you're looking to buy the phone outright you may want to look beyond
whatever the 3 amigos are offering.

Rogers will allow pretty much anything onto their network as long as you
get your SIM from them.  Over the last 10 years I've brought in a couple
of grey-market phones without a problem.  Can't say for Bell/Telus
though.

I'm personally eyeing the N900 - works everywhere phone.  I thought my
N95 would work when I went to Japan but it didn't ... the N900 does.

For a personal review on the Eve, talk to Shawn.  Can't remember what
Gustin has - HTC Hero?

Cheers,
J.J.
