Np. I hardly ever make calls off of wifi. Just make sure you set up wifi calling and the 100 minutes shouldn't be a problem.
Alberta, Telus. I'd love to give you a link to the plan, but Telus' website is so fucked up and convoluted I can't even find the fucking thing. Small Business Shareplus 85 or some shit.
Yeah, I dunno, this GPS thing seems to be a real sticking point with you. If a working GPS is reallyTHATimportant for you, I would take the money I saved on my cell phone plan and buy a Garmin or something. Would take 2-3 months to pay it off with the money you saved and it will have better gps 'coverage' than all the cell carriers combined.
I think calls made over wifi still count against your minutes. Unless you're thinking of something like using Skype? I actually got the $60/year Skype Premium subscription, which gives me unlimited free calls to Switzerland -- and that also doesn't count against my minutes. You could get, cheaper I'd imagine, unlimited free calling to the US and just make calls with that. But I'm not sure I'd use this as my primary number... it works alright when not on wifi, but not 100%. That is, sometimes there is some lag or stuttering.
Fair enough. I realize I'm overemphasizing the point, but I think I have a good reason for it. Driving to my brother's wedding, we're about 30 minutes north of Rutland. Car breaks down and ALL the lights on the dashboard light up. Apparently the engine decided it was a good time to literally eat its own timing belt. The thing was so shredded that a fine black (rubber)powder was being pushed out of the engine casing when we popped the hood. No cell service at all. Had a kind person not stopped 5 minutes later and towed us into Rutland, I'm not sure what I would have done. Would have been a long walk for sure.
I've got a rubber case on my Nexus 4, a couple mm thick, and it charges fine on my Qi charger. It would have to be a pretty thick case to interfere with charging I think.
