Short Codes & iPhone & Fido = no
I have an unlocked iphone on Fido. Everything works fine, but I don't received voicemail smss. Actually I don't receive any SMSs from Fido (they tried sending me one when I called in to investigate).
It looks like my iphone can't receive short code SMSs of any kind.

Does anyone know Fido or a way around this?

given that other phones are generally designed to work only with the software they come with (ie no regular upgrades from the carrier/manufacturer), and given that my iphone works brilliantly aside from this one issue, I don't see the downside in simply staying with what I have. As long as I choose not to upgrade the software, I get to use the world's best phone.
your mileage may vary.
oh, and I paid $300USD and unlocked it myself. How much did you pay for your phone?

I've gotta say, the Jury is still out on that. Other than a video camera, I've yet to see that phone do anything that my Blackberry cant.

pretty much...
I didn't pay anything for my phone.. I told my boss what one i wanted and i got it because I'm spoiled at my job 😁

I had a guy come into my location with an "unlocked" iphone and we still couldn't get it to work properly. It was pretty frustrating, he paid a huge amount for it and now hes left with a glorified ipod.
I'm under the impression the visual viocemail and internet will not function properly on the rogers or fido networks, i was told by our techs that it has something to do with the setting on the towers. Can anyone confirm this?
blackberry 8320 all the way!!!!!!!!!!

yeah... that's a load of xxxx.
er, a load of FUD.
Edge works fine on Rogers (haven't tried it on Fido.) In fact everything works brilliantly except for Fido's VM notification SMS. I'm using a $399 iPhone on my regular City Fido unlimited account and smiling all day long. My wife is using a $299 iPhone (4gig) on Rogers and uses Edge all the time. no issues at all with her.
SMSing each other is the coolest.

I don't have iphone myself. But it's definitely hard to remain unaffected by the whole hysteria surrounding release of this long-awaited device. Now that unlocked version is finally available I think it's worth considering.
Boasting 8Gb (on more expensive version) it was destined to become a hit from a word go. Personally I like the idea of having an all-round unit that allows you to play videos, TV shows, music, audiobooks, movies, etc.
