Hey… could members please post any known issues with compatibility etc. regarding specific unlocked (or locked?) smartphones and SpeakOut?? Or is it understood that any unlocked smartphone should work… even if it had been locked to say… telus?

For the most part, if the phone is unlocked, requires a SIM card, and works with any other North American carrier, it should work with Speakout. If it works with Rogers, it has a very good chance working with Speakout. If you see a phone you like, let us know, I can give you feedback before you buy it.

Hello again. I am considering the Nokia X6 Unlcked from Amazon. It is still unclear if it can be used at 3g speeds for voice and data on SO and t-mobile. The more reviewes I read… the more confused I get!

This particular Nokia X6 phone from Amazon will do the HSDPA 850mhz and 1900 mhz 3G frequencies as well as GSM. So it is compatible with Bell/Telus 3G towers, and Rogers towers. It is also a quad band GSM phone, so it will work with T-Mobile's 2G network. It will not work with Wind or Mobilcity's native network.
There is a European version of this phone that is not as suited for North America, so be wary of that. The phone being sold on Amazon looks to be a North America version, which is nice.

Thanks for the info on the X6. I will see if I can look around for a SO sim and give it a try and report back.
