I'm in Canada as well.

Could someone tell me: what is the unsubsidized price?

The unsubsidized price is US$529, but it operates on a frequency band that is incompatible with the Rogers 3G network, so that won't really help you Canadians, eh.

It operates WIND's network though. $70 for unlimited province-wide talk and data.

I was looking at WINDs pricing, and the unlimmited only seems to be in WIND home areas, and [for the time being] that didn't seem very large.

Also, while it looks like it will work on WIND, it won't be able to roam on Roger's 3G, which seems like it would be useful until they have a more complete network roll-out.

But it should work with Wind Mobile (http://www.wind.ca).

"Home Zones" only in Toronto and Calgary right now, though.

$530.
