If you're only going for a week, Rogers/Fido might be a more economical solution since they have a weekly data plan whereas it seems TELUS only has a monthly one.
BTW: AN*G-BNE's... good info in your follow-up. ^. Personally, I like to do things myself but my buddy and I have similarly run into various issues when trying to register/config phones in the States as well. Find it's just simpler to just have everything done in a store.
To complete the tale, it turns out I was wrong with the Australian iPhone 4s. On arrival, those who had them tested it out, and they do have the 850 MHz 3G band. So, these worked fine on Rogers 3G.
Anyhow, for my family, we had
HTC Desire, 3G/UMTS: 850/2100, GSM: 850/900/1800/2100, worked fine on Rogers 3G
HTC Wildfire, exactly as above
LG Optimus One, 3G/UMTS: 900/2100, GSM: 850/900/1800/2100, worked on Rogers but using EDGE on GSM, due to the lack of 850 3G band
