I bought a NOKIA 1208 in Thailand. Will it work in Canada? Is there a way to check whether it is locked or not before I travel to Canada?

I do not think it will work. I doubt the Asian Nokia 1208 is locked, but I believe the phone will only work on the 900mhz and 1800 mhz band. North American GSM carriers use the 850 mhz and 1900 frequencies. There are 2 versions of the Nokia 1208, and each are only compatible in their region.
