Koodo is prepaid, there's NO CONTRACT as long as you don't get the Tab. So, every phone is prepaid pretty much.

You are obviously not very bright. 5 cents a page means when you are browsing the internet every new page that your phone loads, it will cost 5 cents. Not everyone needs the top phones, like you said yourself, it's for people who dont make as much as others. Go get the LG Keybo with Telus, it will be a lot more expensive. Pull out whatever is stuck where the sun done shine, and get real. You need to grow up and step into reality.

A "page," is basically like measuring data in ye olde "chains" and "furlongs." See this site: http://www.unitarium.com/data. Wikipedia doesn't even mention this unit of measurement.

According to said site, a page is about 1.7 kilobytes. What gives? If you use data services often, I've seen plans from other companies for ¢3 per megabyte. Why are wireless companies so sketchy in Canada? It makes me nauseous.

I have an LG Keybo and love my service with Koodo. It was a little rocky as my SCH-U410 sucked the big one. But Koodo gladly tossed out my tab on it and allowed me to buy the Keybo for 75$. I was with Bell, and my phones battery died 11/12 months of the units warranty. I went in and asked for a replacement battery. They told me no, I told them to stuff it and bought out my contract and ported my number to Koodo. Cost me 400$, but I'm happy that I don't have a contract binding me to their service for years on end. It's not that I'm afraid of commitment, I just don't like the idea that the only way bell can keep their customers is by tieing them to their contracts and charging them up the ying yang to cancel.

Not quite! Koodo is a lot better than the 7/11 prepaid devices. You get real service, you don't run out of minutes and need to buy another card. It's not for “low end” consumers at all… you still need to have a good credit check come through. And you need to update yourself on their phones. Their LG Keybo has a 2mp camera on it. But, do you want a cell phone or a camera? Because if you're looking for a good high megapixel picture taker, buy a Sony or a Canon. If you want a good cell phone, LG and Motorola are great and both are offered by Koodo. If you want a crappy cell phone, go for those prepaid phones you mentioned.
