    E63 in Vancouver

    Hello everyone,

    does anyone know of any stores in the Lower mainland region that sell this phone unlocked? Also, which revision (RM) are the ones normally sold in Canada? 450 or 449?

    Thank you very much in advance...

    There's a store on Robson near the corner of Granville that sells a number of unlocked phones. Not sure if they sell the E63 specifically, but it's worth checking there. I would not suspect you could predict which revision would be sold, as none of the Canadian carriers carry it.
    The word 'Pentaband' means '5 Bands', from the Greek word 'pente' meaning '5'. For a phone to be pentaband it has to support 5 bands. If the phone has AWS support, it doesn't automatically mean that it is pentaband. The reason Wind and Mobilicity users like pentaband phones is because the reverse is true. We're not the only ones who like pentaband phones though, so please stop referring to phones that work on Wind and Mobilicity as pentaband. It causes unnecessary cofusion.

    ok, so the revisions are hit and miss. Thanks for the info. I'll have a look at the robson store. Are there any other ones around town?

    Crystal Mall is rather sketchy. Not cell phone related, but last time I went there in the food section they had chunks of rotting fruit with flies all over them and nobody did anything. They don't seem to have any health regulation, so I'd suspect they don't have regulation of any kind.
