So I'm over my Allotment of data for this month. and while 2 cents per megabyte over seems low it's actually 20$ more per gigabyte. I know it's been mentioned before but I would really like to be able to:
a) Purchase Extra gigabytes at 10$ each in ADDON form.
b) Share a data bucket with my account (since my wife barely uses her allotment)
c) See Koodo lower the overage cost from 2 cpm to 1 cpm
My 2 cents (wish it were one)

Price of data in canada for all cell phone companies should be labeled as criminal, since the prices are highway robbery! Try being on pay and talk on telus, $2/meg or can get an addon plan with lowest being $10 for a whopping 100MB!

heh, or 35/GB on koodo pre paid.
The price of pre paid data is the only reason I'm on a pro rated monthly contract. The day that there's a decent pre paid package out there I'll switch immediately back to pre paid.

is it worth getting the s4 without a data plan? or is it better to stick with a cheaper phone if you wont get data? i have wifi at home

It depends on your usage... Wi-Fi is great at home or in certain areas but having a data plan gives you full functionality of your device as smartphones are designed around it. It's definitely useful to have, especially on a high-end Android smartphone like the S4.

I wouldn't recommend any particular phone based on your plan. All of those phones are equally crippled without a data plan.

If you are at home when you basically use your phone for data uses like browsing the Web or using Facebook ect like myself than go with the best phone you can. If you aren't home much or where there's wifi available and like to check your Facebook or surf the Web while your out and about then go with the cheaper phone and a plan with data, it really depends how you use use your phone. I use my phone like a phone while I'm out and about & like a smartphone when I'm at home personally, If I do use my phone like a smartphone when I'm out its usually just playing a game or something like that while waiting at an appointment or something and things that use data can wait till I'm home usually. The only thing I use a fair bit while out that uses data is the navigation or Google Maps apps to find places I'm going if I haven't been there before.

Imo you should get the most phone you can afford and if you get the S4 you will not be sorry should you decide later on to get data or when you do use wifi. Remember you can play games on these phones too so the more processing power you have the better. Also the android app lineup is far superior to windows phone.
