Canada’s Koodo Mobile lights up

Filed under:

As expected, Telus has rolled out its young, fresh, “fat-free” (their words, not ours) Koodo Mobile brand this week, targeting Canadians looking for a no-frills way to get wireless on the cheap. In light of all the unlimited action we’ve seen stateside as of late, we’re not necessarily blown away by the offerings — but $65 CAD for 1000 minutes plus unlimited incoming calls, 50 text messages, and per-second billing is alright… we guess. The phone selection is positively barebones, too, reflecting the mantra of the company itself; buyers can choose from a Samsung U410 for $75, a Motorola KRZR for $200, and a W385 — also from Moto — for $125. Any Canadians want to chime in here? Is this a blessing, or a Telus-backed fleece?
