Comment on Smart TVs can transform surveillance with online connectivity by Lee

In a story called Smart TV Owners Not So Smart After All, a TV viewing habit survey is cited that says only half (53 percent) of Smart TV owners actually know what a Smart TV is, and that some 25 percent of all Smart TV owners have never used it to connect to the Internet.

Hmmm….smart, or not so smart?

Comment on Canadian phone companies need a code of conduct by Lee

Another quick update….

As mentioned above, provincial governments are in some cases moving faster that the CRTC and any recommendations it makes for a ‘wireless code’

Ontario has now tabled its plans to ‘curb mobile phone bill shock’ with the adoption of The Wireless Services Agreement Act, 2012, saying that it is time that Ontarians get legislative protection from unfair wireless practices.

The province’s wireless consumer protection legislation has received its fair share of ups and downs since it was originally introduced by MPP David Orazietti in 2010 as Bill 133 (The Wireless Phone, Smart Phone and Data Service Transparency Act, 2011).

The planned legislation requires wireless carriers to provide clear disclosure of all optional and mandatory services and contract cancellation penalties, and limit contract termination fees.

One of the new competitors in the wireless sector, Mobilicity, was quick to commend the government’s actions, in a statement released today:

“Carrier codes governed by the Canadian Wireless Telecommunications Association (CWTA) have proven ineffective in protecting consumers and seem to act in the best interests of the Big 3, not Canadians,” said Mobilicity President and Chief Operating Officer Stewart Lyons. “Ontario is definitely on the right track and we hope other provinces will keep the trend going until all consumers from coast-to-coast get the protection they deserve.”

Comment on Telus will unlock any of its phones for $50 fee by Ted Kritsonis

@Linden
Thanks for your feedback. I’ve confirmed with Telus multiple times about this and they do, in fact, unlock any of their phones (except the iPhone) for a $50 fee.

The key is that you either need to have been under contract for at least 90 days or your contract needs to be finished in order for them to do it. I have gone to a Telus kiosk myself pretending to be a customer and they confirmed the unlocking policy.

Which phone are you looking to unlock?
