Does anyone know if the extended analogue coverage offered by Fido
(through Mobility) will still be offered? Or are they going to switch
it to Rogers analog network?

I recall that Rogers never offered analog fallback for its GSM
customers so it will be interesting to see what happens..

on the fido FAQ it says that you will still be analog-roaming on bell/telus
as if nothing has changed....

BUT, since the GSM coverage is so damn deep with Rogers, your need to use
analog will be much, much less.

In my experience there are fewer and fewer places that have Rogers AMPS
but no GSM. I doubt very much that you'll even want Rogers AMPS unless you
are definately in an area that has only Rogers AMPS. TTYL

Analogue will still be provided by Bell and Telus.

Yes, but probably not for a long time. When things calm down they will
examine this option and find they don't need to offer it anymore since
rogers coverage are almost as good as bell analog (except on a few remote
locations like gaspesia, quebec) And they probably don't want to give any
money to Bell. Also analog will probably gone in a year or two.
