Should be the one on the bell website:200min,500mb data, unlimited evening n weekend starting from 6, unlimited text.
I went for the share plan because they gave me $100 credit for switching to bell.
This guy called Lucas was helping me at parker place and he said he will give me free case and screen protector once they are out for the nexus.

Okay quick question. When you drag down the notification bar and you notice you have multiple emails. Is there an app or fix that makes it so I can see all the emails/texts instead of "5 new emails" or "2 new messages". I'd much rather it be messier and tell me who in each notification.

so what's the cheapest way to pick one up right now other than using the following:
Virgin $20 month to month + buy outright
Craigslist
I've heard that with a 3 year activation, the costco wireless booth will give you a $150 cash coupon for costco(useful for me) as well as drop the contract price to $80 for the phone.
What are the early termination fees for bell? (i've searched far and wide... but can't find a solid $$$ figure)

( I THINK )

Played with one from Bell at Pacific Centre. God damn it's nice and fast.
Big issue for me is that I know once CM9 becomes stable and OC kernels are developed, my captivate will perform perfectly fine for what I need 
Which means, it's back to waiting for the next Google phone which will hopefully impress us at it's release with the same level of want as the Google releases prior to the Nexus S.

^ I need GPS... so yeah... though my vibrant does have a good working GPS.... it's a hit and miss. If it wants to work, it works.

I never thought of this on my SGS2, but just swiping down on the screen pulls down my notification bar. GENIUS
