@%#$# cell phone plans...

My recent adventure with Telus has caused me to take a long hard look at my contract and what my options are. I increasingly rely on mobile data, and counting the Kilobytes every time I use a data service is becoming tiresome.

Enter Bell, with a new promotion on the HTC Touch... $99.95 on a 3-year term, with an option for $7/month unlimited data. Here are the details that concern me most:

Monthly rate
incl. fees$83.30$53.70

The penalty I would pay Telus to break my contract is $20/month for the remainder of the term -- even after that I am saving about $10/month... and get a better phone, in addition to a superior service plan.

I am thinking I will be getting a new phone soon...
