Hi rfranzq, lets not go there with the online messaging system and my parents. I've tried so hard to teach them how to connect a netbook and later tablet (because I thought it might be easier - WRONG) to wifi, but I've yet to see them successfully do it by themselves while travelling.

haha
So... I got the onesimcard just now! Activated, popped it in the Note II. It takes a few minutes to register, but it seems to work!
First time connecting, it used Bell. Messaging back and forth with the Huawei/Telus phone works. (Forgot to check voice)
Second time connecting, it used Rogers. Messaging back and forth with the Huawei/Telus phone works. Voice works.
So far I am happy!
*edit* I will report back with results when the other sim comes
