    Hi i live around toronto and i was wondering, does iPhone work with bell? or telus? Because i certainly dont want rogers or fido. And how does it work after you have unlocked it, when you put the sim card in? i mean how does it charge you for your calls? and texting? also if you hack the iPhone would it work with pay as you go? any help much appreciated.

    Peace

    No, because Bell and Telus use CDMA instead of GSM, in other words they don't use SIM cards. This is why iPhones only work for Rogers and Fido (the only 2 GSM networks in Canada). What's so bad about Rogers/Fido?

    iPhones are only meant to work with AT&T. When you unlock it you can use it on any GSM network (Rogers or Fido - the only two in Canada). Usage/billing works like any other cell phone. Prices depend on your monthly plan, has nothing to do with the iPhone.

    As long as your pay as you go is on a GSM network, it would work like any other cell phone, again totally dependent on your plan.
