anyone know what this means for Wind Mobile and Moblicity in Canada?

I am sick of Robbers Wireless and their high plan prices.

I know Wind uses the same frequency as sprint/t-mobile so in theory should this dual-mode iphone work on their network?

It's a out time, when they came out with the CDMA iPhone I was surprised that they didn't just modify the previous iPhone 4.

Coming from a manufacturing perspective having one product increased production speeds immensely.

For the iPhone 5 I believe them having only one product to manufacture is going to be the only way to keep up with the worlds demand for this phone.
 
Europe iPhone

They should do it like in France. Under the French law, the provider company have to unlock the phone officially after 3 months either with a 1 year or 2 years contract if the consumers ask, so that the phone owners can plug in any phone around the world!!!
 
What do you guys think of the possibility the iPhone 5 could switch to a data plan like Apple has for the iPad. Where there is no contracts for the iPhone 5. You just buy one and can, at any time, switch from one carrier to another depending on coverage, speed, and pricing.

I have a feeling this is how the new iPad 3 is going to work, but i wonder if Apple would ever do the same with their iPhones.

Features like this is why a software SIM "card" is desirable for Apple and consumers. Is it any wonder that the carriers are against it?
