Hi, and yes, this would be the right place to ask that question
As westmini mentionned, you can send that phone to her without any worries, as long as it has 1900Mhz coverage, she won't have any problems using either Rogers or Fido in the Toronto area
Have a good one

by the way westmini, I see an industrial amount of threads talking about bugs with the k700i...have you experienced any of these? Are you still satisfied?

by the way, does anyone know why it's not possible to activate the receipt confirmation on sms with Fido? Is it possible with Rogers?
-----------
Receipt confirmation is disabled on the SIM by Fido and Rogers. To use it on Fido, preceed your SMS with 111 at the very beginning of the message body:
111Hello how are you.....
For Rogers, if somehow you can get your phone to ignore the SIM setting through firmware re. confirmation, then it will work.

im a canadian member!! and also about the mms thing...rogers also recently introduced a "mms" feature...its not a true mms, but the idea sounds nice, picture messaging where you would send the picture to the receiving phone but instead of receiving the picture the receiver gets a link to where he can view it on his phone...again i ssaid it sounds nice cause IT DOESNT WORK lol i havent been able to figure out how to get it to work, ive called rogers a few times and they havent been able to help me.
Don't know about Rogers but Fido will only activate MMS on phones you buy from them. Others can only receive links through WAP.

@ bacanito first about the cost and everything, worked out to be 707 which isnt too bad considering no provider has it yet in canada
You're not kidding!!
How did you get out of paying 15% GST/PST bro?
As K700 is not made in USA customs duty also applies.
Did you use Fedex or USPS?
