Fido or Telus? Which is better?

I charged up my T237 overnight and tried it out today. SO far, so good. I didn't have a chance to try it from a variety of locations, but it worked well when I used it. I am so used to Siemens phones that I need to get used to it. The screen isn't as good as my Siemens A65 was and the reception seems the same. Overall, a good phone so far. It was free, so I got credited on my Visa for the $25 (still cheap) that I paid for the Siemens and for $20, bought a car charger, headset and case.

I am hooked on Fido....I guess I have been brainwahsed into the cult. It was nice today, I accpepted a ton of incoming calls and all were free! I am loving my plan!

Well, although I exchanged my Siemens A65 (1900/1800/900 mhz) for the Sony Ericsson T237 (1900 and 850 MHz) since Rogers operates on 850 mhz., I was happier with my Siemens phone. It seems to be cutting out her and there...not as clear as the Siemens. Although, it was windy today, could that be why? I still will try it under different conditions.

Well.. I have to admit, Siemens phones has clearer earpiece. However, considering in terms of RF. 850mhz is must. If you plan to go back to A65, trust me, you'll regret.

I won't go back to the Siemens. The Sony was better this evening, no wind. Thanks for the advice.

Not a problem, as longest as you like it.
