Telus and Bell built a JOINT network. It's the same 3G network operating on 850Mhz & 1900Mhz.
Their CDMA Network is on the way out and will not be upgraded.
Rogers also has a 3G network operating on 850Mhz & 1900Mhz.

So, you have the nations three biggest carriers operating on the same frequencies of 850Mhz & 1900Mhz HSPA(+).
The only thing not compatible is the first and second gen networks.

The only carriers that this doesn't affect are Mobilicy and Wind.
a. because they don't have contracts and in case of Wind, will unlock your phone (after 3 months) (not sure about mobilicity)
b. they are on the AWS band and are only compatible with each other. (1700Mhz/2100Mhz)

Something completely ignored by this author is accessibility.

There is no current solution for AJAX and people with disabilities. Creating this ideal client side view is completely shutting out anyone using a screen reader. Ideally, your view is built in such a way that it is easily rendered in both the server and client.

Template Toolkit with Jemplate is an example of a solution to this issue. Using server side detection you can see if your client needs a server rendered view and if not, your templates are rendered on the client side.
