i've had situations where the reception bars on my phone drop to 1 or no bars, yet i'd still be connected to the network and still be able to use my data or txt. data obviously wasnt the strongest, but it still worked.

iPhone 5 will never be available on AWS. Just give it up already. It's good that it won't be available cause WIND's network will not be able to support the traffic.

Last that I've heard, they have poor reception up at SFU due to current lease agreements. They cannot setup any towers there until that expires.

reception is extremely terrible at SFU. whilst you're in classrooms, no bars at all. outside of classrooms in buildings you get 1-2 bars max. outside is a totally different story though.

I had to pay $450 in cancellations fees to Robbers because of the lack of service and the horrendous plan after being a 10 year customer, I ported my number over to wind in taking advantage of the BTS plan.

I honestly haven't looked at how many bars I have in years.

T-Mobile (uses AWS)has been gearing up their network to use the iPhone. so like usual, is still all speculative.
who knows besides Apple? 
EDIT: yeah AWS gets fucked again

i had 1 year left with telus when i signed up for iphone 4 back in sept '10.. they charge me $20 a month so total was $240.. plus my regular $80 a month bill with 500mb and $50 for unlocking the iphone
so iv been with wind for 2 days now, other than having 1 bar or no reception at my work in the building and warehouse.. and a friend's house in south van.
i say all around lower mainland, i get great reception and data speed on 4 bars.. especially richmond.. even at 2 bars at a high rise apt, i still get good reception calls
got an S3 with $29 unlimited and $8 voicemail.. also if you have student id they give you $25 credit on first month
