What would you do?

Hey there, I'm currently using a Milestone w/ CM6 on Fido and I'm wanting to switch to WIND for the unlimited data.

What I'm trying to decide between: Nexus S for $375 with WINDTab, or buy a used T-Mobile G2 (which cost about the same).

Any advice or recommendations?

Nexus S for sure. Why would you pay the same amount for a used G2?

Because the way WINDTab works is kinda like a contract...lol

It's just that you won't have to pay retarded termination fees, but you will have to pay whatever's left on the price of the phone.

Have you tested out wind's coverage/ data speeds where you'll be using it mostly? Would help before you commit to the tab.

I have not tested WIND yet, because I don't have access to an AWS phone...but I'm assuming it should be fine since I'm in Van West/UBC/No.3 90% of the time.

Gonna borrow a friend's N900 and see if I can try out WIND's network without losing WINDTab offer
