Actually, for US usage - thatsa good plan for Canadians going south. When I used Bell, i had to pay extra for US coverage - plus regular contract price and I got dinged 200.00 extra for roaming charges - even though I had the US plan. SO, these prices for time south are good without haivng to sign a yearly contract with Verizon etc. I could not see how much the stick was - or do they sell the sim cards ?
