Cheap Data Canada
Hello Everyone!
I am from Hawaii and will be visiting Seattle and Canada and I am wondering what is the best way to get cheap data in Canada. I have a t-mobile data plan and android and I'll be able to use that and google maps for GPS navigation in Seattle but when I get to Canada I won't have data due to expensive charges. Any one can give me some info on grabbing a cheap data prepaid?
Thanks!

Rogers
Rogers has some pretty cheap plans, 7$ for seven days for 250MB I think, or there is a 30 day unlimited plan for I think 25$. you do need a card though which costs 10$

If you are staying within the major metropolitan areas, look at Wind Mobile. www.windmobile.ca. They have great rates, but a small footprint. If you step outside that footprint, you are paying roaming rates. To your benefit, however, is the fact that you use the same 1700mhz 3g band as TMobile.
