Sorry … never going back to Telus. Rogers is the least of these 2 evils to me.

Still there is the signed bootloader which makes it impossible to install Customroms…..

@Jeff
Same here, there isn’t anything Telus could offer that would ever make me subscribe to their services again. They’re as crooked as they come… at least in my experience.

Speaking of the Milestone being a smartphone witout limits. You can’t install custom ROMs on a rooted Milestone as Motorola chose to cryptographically sign the boot loader and other parts necessary for loading custom ROMs. Here in Europe the majority of users of this phone already plan to get rid of it in favor of an HTC, most likely the Nexus One.
We are not sure why they even bother to publish the device’s source code if you can’t use that for anything but looking at it.

Canada has received some good Android handsets from all the carriers. It’s good to see that the Milestone is being made available as well.

UNFORTUNATELY, even if we get the more powerful Android phones, it still doesn’t change the fact that we’re still limited to free apps only here in Canada. I think that will still take away from the Android experience.

Yah that would be my guess aswell…
