WIND Mobile (Canada) to start offering $15 unlimited roaming plan for the US

[Matthew Becker1]

For those of us on WIND, or considering switching to them, they have announced a new plan which will give unlimited talk, text, and data as a $15 add-on for roaming in the US. It's set to go live on February 3rd.

That is pretty awesome for those near the boarder. US Companies will just stick with charging you $15 per MB though.

No word yet who they're partnering with (possibly T-Mobile) or the type of data speeds expected (people are speculating 2G, but there's no real grounds to lean one way or another), but this is so much cheaper than any of the Big Three's add-ons, or getting a prepaid SIM in the US.

LOL! People from the states will head north for this deal. :grin:
