An anonymous source at Bell’s head office has leaked out some strange billing information. Seems as though their new e-bill system accidentally overcharged around 100,000 clients in Ontario and Quebec. How much did it overcharge? Oh, just a cool $500… Nothing big, you know… whatever 😛 From an internal notice sent around at Bell: “As…

Palm Centro Arrives at Bell… As Expected.
They’ve gone done and did it. Bell now has the Palm Centro available for purchase… Much to everyone’s indifference.

Bell will start carrying the Centro starting February 2nd at the…
