What is your budget ?
and where do you want to buy ? Canada /US /GULF ? or your location?y t
By the way I use Sony Ericsson K660i ( 3G phone, dual camera 3G features not tested yet by me) the phone is good except in one department.
the sounds are not loud enough and unlike nokia / motorola, samsung etc. But I can live with it.

Good question Manasvi, am waiting for replies to the same... for using cell phones in Canada.

And anyone is answering this please tell me is it true that all companies charge us for incoming calls in Canada? (i am from India and incoming calls are not charged there...)

Hello!
If you take prepaid option all calls are charged (both incoming & outgoing).
if you take a monthly plan, then incoming is free. for outgoing you have a fixed number of minutes (say 100) on peak hours (mon-fri, 8:00 am to 6:00 pm) and free for the rest of the time 0r fully free (depends on the plan).
Fido is the cheapest provider. So see their websites for more info.. Telus has the widest coverage, better reception and is all over Canada.
FYI, Landline in canada is fixed price. All incoming and outgoing local calls are free.
Hope it answers your Q.

Not necessarily true. On a Rogers network, prepaid to prepaid, only the outgoing is charged, incoming is free. This may not be true with Bell or Telus. It depends on the service provider

if you take a monthly plan, then incoming is free. for outgoing you have a fixed number of minutes (say 100) on peak hours (mon-fri, 8:00 am to 6:00 pm) and free for the rest of the time 0r fully free (depends on the plan).

You're probably refering to only specifc plans from Fido. Even with Fido there are plans where incoming is charged. As regards free evenings, it again depends on the plan.
