Cityfone resells both Microcell's (GSM) and Rogers' (TDMA) network access.

The reach is therefore the summ of the two you need two phones.

I don't think Cityfone sells Rogers access, out of their network they fall
back on to Telus' analog network. Not to sure about back east but definitely
on the west coast.

Check their website (www.cityfone.net). They now resell Rogers' TDMA
network. I wonder if the Nokia 6340i works on all, Fido GSM, Rogers TDMA,
Bell and Telus analog. Anyone with an inside scoop?

They do now. I have a TDMA phone with them (on Vancouver Island).
