Voip-Cell-Admin — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 05:20:32 +0000

WIND Mobile Roaming Costs

So, if you're in a dead-spot where WIND is supposedly operating, you'll roam onto Rogers and pay 25cents per minute for all incoming and outgoing calls.

WIND will be selling their products through their retail stores, but also through select Blockbuster videostores.

Checkout my article here for WIND's own retail storefront non-kiosk locations.

... from the incumbents Telus, Bell and Rogers.

1. Tie-in with Google Voice (or at least cloning many of their services). This would allow one to check voicemail messages by having them emailed to you, and even having them transcribed. Seriously, just look at the Google Voice article to see what kind of innovations any telecom could offer if they just decided to be... innovative.

2. Innovative voicemail options: For example, tie-ins with Google Latitude, where callers (or select callers) can find out your geographic location when you're unable to take your call.

WIND Mobile Pricing: Post your Rumours Here on Texting, Minutes, Data Plans and more!

For now, we really have no idea what WIND plans to actually charge. Nothing official has been announced on the WIND Mobile Website. See the comment below for rumoured pricing, or post your own rumours!

However, it is reasonably safe to say that the main cost for operating a cell phone network is in setting everything up rather than the cost of each individual minute or text sent.
