Canadians REPRESENT!

Posted Dec 13, 2012 at 11:22 am in Threads > Opinions

Just curious as to how many Canadians are on androidandme. Who are you, where’re you from, and what devices of the ‘droid persuasion do you have?

- Samsumg Galaxy player 5.0 (2.3.5)
- Acer A700 (4.1.1)
- Samsumg Galaxy Note (the wife’s, 4.1.1)

Mark, from Calgary!

I’ll jump into this fray, just to help you get some A&M points. :)

- Galaxy S i9000 (Bell version), wife’s, running CM7.1
- Galaxy S i9000 (Bell version), mine, running CM10
- Archos 10.1 Tablet (ugh)

… waiting on the SGS 4 to upgrade the first two.

  3-year contracts are the worst, how’re the galaxies holding up?

    OUCH! THREE year contracts?! No way I’d sign one of those! I likes me my full-price phones with cheap plans for service!

      I save and buy my device outright, it’s cheaper than the 3 year contract.

      I would agree with you but I’m on my 5th year with Bell (on my second 3-year plan) and honestly, I don’t sign it for the subsidized phone. I do it because of my rentention plan that I get with it…
      
      My girlfriend is on Wind but the reception and call quality is actually horrible. On both sides, we constantly hear cracking and “robotic” static noises and even distorted human conversation (call interference? Is that even possible?)

  Sure, update your own phone and leave her on gingerbread; she won’t know the difference right? :P

I live in BC!

I bought my wife an Acer Iconia 7″ and even though it’s Acer it is pretty slick.

The fantastic news is that my 3.5 year old Blackberry bold is getting replaced on Dec 20 as my 16gb Nexus 4 shipped last night!!!

Canadian by birth but living in the USA for the past ten years, so I’m out of touch with the Canadian telecomm scene.

I got kicked out of Canada before I ever got in thanks customs and no I’m not a drug smuggler ,even after the 4 hours of false interrogations we were not permitted into Canada because we had less than 500$ in our pockets so worth the 16 hours of driving back and forth!!!!!!!!,

It seems like most of us are from Edmonton…or rather, Alberta to be more correct. What happened to the other provinces?
