Well, that's canada for you. We don't even have any nseries phones. We have to get them online.Basically, i was just wondering if it will work at all. Occasionally i get a 3G symbol on my screen but it's usually the 2 arrows and E for edge.

don't take what I said as somthing against Canadian, I've used Rogers before and other service provider in Canada, the service providers in Canada are way behind on the cell phone industry around the world , those 2 links will tell more what I'm talking about
