I wouldn't switch to Tmobile, their coverage and quality are horrible.

Right now I have Straight Talk on ATT for $45/mo and my goal is to use LTE/data only for data and voice when I'm in Canada and keep my Toronto number which I can't give up for other reasons - with Callcentric, I can keep the number and people up there can call me with the call being forwarded to any number I designate and they have no idea where I am.

The data only plan in Canada is only $5 when I'm not using it, and would be about 25-40% less than my current cost combining Fido prepaid plus Wind for laptop access if I can use my phone as a hotspot when I'm up there.
