After Few Days Of Use, The Google Nexus 4 Proves A Very Strong LTE Smartphone
Last Friday, I told you how to get your Nexus 4 working on LTE networks in Canada. All through this past weekend and today, I've been using that device as my primary phone on the LTE band the entire time. And despite some definite reduction in battery life, I couldn't be happier with the Nexus 4 now that it's playing nice with Rogers' LTE network.

Telco Company Claims Freedom of Speech Includes Misleading Ads
An anonymous reader writes "Rogers Telecommunications is claiming that a ruling by Canada's Competition Bureau violates Rogers' freedom of speech. The company is in court over a 2010 ad campaign where it claimed that its discount brand 'Chatr' was more reliable and suffered fewer dropped calls than the competition. The Competition Bureau found 'no discernible difference in dropped-call rates between Rogers/Chatr and new entrants' and began legal proceedings against Rogers for violating Canada's Competition Act. The Bureau is seeking a $10 million (CDN) fine, an end to the ad campaign, and for Rogers to issue a corrective notice."
