Although the 2 posts above have nothing to do with the original topic question, Here's my opinion on Roger's Talk spot.
Rogers Talk spot, as well as Fido UNO, is pretty convenient and usefull for the most part, if you are in an area where you are unable to properly pick up GSM and WCDMA signals, for example, a basement appartment, or a condominium building with lots of steel and concrete.
It uses your unlicenced WIFI band to obtain working cellphone service.. Now if you dont subscribe, your wifi calls are billed just as if you were on the 2G/3G network. You add the FidoUno and Rogers Talkspot options and you get UNLIMITED CALLING when your on the wifi zone, doesnt matter if your here in toronto, or in a vancouver hotel on wifi, your local calling area will still be your npa-nxx.
My handset is FidoUNO compatible, so I have used Wifi to make calls in vancouver in my hotel room, but I dont subsctibe to the fido uno monthly options cus I have unlimited minutes on my plan anyways.
