I ended up going with the Solo phone service. For $70 for a basic handset with a $10 pay as you go credit, it just couldn't be beat.
Nobody else was selling a basic handset for that price, the per/minute price is a little higher during business hours, but lower on evenings and weekends. Plus, I can swtich to a monthy plan, WITHOUT signing a contract for 11 Billion years.
I remember Rogers had some deal, buy the phone for $160, get a $60 mail in rebate, and $100 credit but:
A) I hate mail in rebates. My track record is like 2 payouts out of 9 attempts. And no, it's not my fault, that's the whole point of them.
B) $100 credit, I don't need to use that much airtime, and it'd probably expire before I ever used it anyway.
