That's a decent strategy, especially given that Mobilicity (and probably also Wind?) doesn't have coverage in your area.

They all cover me here, but I'm going to use the device on Telus for the first two months until my contract is finally over with. Two choices for data: $10/month for "flex data" (MBs), or $35/month for a heavier duty version (GBs).

I think the "$10/month" flex plan is good for about 500MB at a $30 cost, so it may be the right one. We'll see.

Either way, Telus shares HSPA+ with Bell (and vice-versa), so DSL-speed data is available under that plan just about anywhere I'm likely to go inside of Canada.
