Mobilicity starts mobile phone service in some Canadian cities

I contacted Mobilicity, and they said they are AWS as well:

If you have a phone that is not sold by Mobilicity and you’d like to activate it, you have to check the frequency of your device and ensure it’s compatible with the Mobilicity network. Mobilicity’s network uses a frequency called AWS, with bands 1700/2100. This is a fairly new frequency for phone carriers to use and there are only two other carriers in North America that use it.

AWS is an North American only thing, which means the phone handset will not be usable elsewhere, and will have coverage limited to the network and its roaming partners.

That is bad ...
