Maybe next year or the year after WM will catch up. But to see so many diehard WM fans moving to other devices....well, I think I'm moving on with them.

I understand the problem in Canada with such a 'closed' market. I understand you're with Telus at the moment, but if you go with Rogers, you get a few more 'options' since you can purchase any GSM phone you like and fire it up just by inserting the SIM card.

I was running a HTC Kaiser/Tilt for about a year, and now own a Raphael/Touch Pro/Fuze. Both work flawlessly on the Rogers network. Right now, I'm test driving a Touch Diamond 2, but unfortunately, it's from the UK, so it won't do 3G, but everything else works like a dream.

There are CDMA unlocked phones available which technically should work on Telus, but I don't know if they 'lock' the network to only use their phones. Unfortunately, most of the store techs I've met only know the products from their vendors. Not much about the outside world.
