Thanks,

Re: Sim Cards?
Moe,
We do appreciate the suggestion, but the cost in running a wireless service is incredibly high. To build our own network would cost billions and to use someone elses network would also cost a ton. If we ever got into wireless it would not be free, but you can bet we would try to keep it as cheap as possible. Wireless competition in Canada is tough, which is unfortunate. Everyone was excited to see Wind Mobile come to life, but the CRTC hasn't even let them get off the ground yet.
Keep your eyes posted in the future though! Fibernetics has a lot of great ideas in store!
