They also got a waterproof phone as well.

I agree with Hongy about how integrated the cell phones are in japan towards their lifestyle, but I can't prove it.

6 or 7 years ago, you might have been right. But now, smartphones have met/surpassed those phones in Japan.

this is very different from zagg/bse. zagg and bse both offer full all around protection. Notice the stealthguard is only front and back no side. maybe that just for the free one though

So how does micro sim work? If I switch from my BB right now, do I have to go to rogers to transfer my current sim card number to the micro sim?

^Yes, and to use your BB again you would have to buy a micro sim adapter.

you don't need to go in store, just 611 rogers up and tell them you got a new sim and would like to activate it.

So if I want to upgrade from my 3G where should I go? Somewhere like wireless wave or straight to Rogers?

I'm on a retentions plan and am 2.5 years into my 3 year contract so pretty sure I can just go re-up and pay the new 3 year pricing, how much was it in total for you guys signing on for 3?

go to the apple store, they do all carrier HUP's there.

it will be a lot faster than rogers, since most rogers stores have a call list 50-150 ppl deep.

if ur that far into ur contract, u can get a 16GB for 159 or a 32GB for 249 i believe

the oakridge apple store SHOULD have more today, so go line up at 930
