if you guys are paying 479 no contract, you mind aswell get it from cellworldco for 550. 70bucks difference, unless you want to go through all the hassle to bring back + gas. Unless you ship it over, thats extra on customs.
I was considering the vibrant aswell, but i just didn't like the idea of having to wait for samsung to release new software every single time.

I've just switched over from my existing "Always Talk" with Social Blackberry. Now I have the $25 "Always Talk + Text" plus Social Blackberry for the same price as my old "Always Talk" plan. You guys should jump into this offer
key thing is that existing users can take advantage of this promo too!

if you guys dont want to pay for a sim and get a free phone at the same time, sign up for the $150 wind tab deal, get a free phone + sim on the cheapest chat plan ($7.5) then call customer service to get the $40 unlimited everything plan.
They couldnt do the windtab $150 credit + $40 plan on activation, but you can use this loophole to get both.
I did this and got a nokia 5230 and didnt pay a single penny haha. ported over from my mobilicity line lol

But with the WindTab promo, you get $150 towards a phone if you activate a new line, So any phone under $150 is free. I activated a $7.50 chat plan on a nokia 5230 ($140) which includes a sim card, so it was free with the WindTab promo. I then called Wind CSR and changed my $7.50 chat plan into the $40 always shout + infinite data plan. Bam free phone + sim + $40 plan
otherwise if you just get the $40 plan, you'd have to buy a new $20 sim card or pay full price for a phone because they cant give you the WindTab $150 promo on the $40 shout + infinite promo at the same time apparently.
I then changed my first $35 plan onto the new $25 plan. With my -$25 per month activation credit a month, I'm paying $40 a month + tax for 2 unlimited lines + nokia phone for $40 a month lol
FYI: now my data on wind is excellent, 4.5mbps download 0.5mbps upload. When i was on mobilicity it was 1.75mbps down and 1mbps up and only workin 10% of the time lol

LOL aberdeen has ALL the carriers in there except telus. Rogers, fido, wind, mobilicity, bell.
I like how Fido is still promoting the idea "$35 activation fee is on us", while the new carriers are on a $40 all you can use everything promo. What a joke robbers is.

So for the Windtap, does it mean I have to stay with Wind for about 3 years or else I have to pay to cancel/port out?
For example
You cancel in 6 months after you get the Windtap, then you owe wind $150 - (6 x $4) = $126....
is this correct?

I dont know how some of those stores and stay opened in that place. No one ever goes in, let alone buy anything, and the rent is super pricey.
