Here's the website -
http://www.sncf.fr/indexe.htm

Trains run every 30 minutes - the trip is 20 minutes - the fare for the day I chose was 3.10 Euro

PS - I got the above website by checking the Fodors.com Nice information. When you read the Arrivals info, it lists the above website link

I'm not sure which type of train runs from Nice to Canne, but be aware that a local train may be slightly rickety. I took the TGV from Lyon to Nice, and was taken aback by the difference in the train I took from Nice to Monaco. Not sure how extensively you've traveled by train in Europe, but I just want you to be more prepared than I was!

I rode the train from Nice to Monaco and it was just fine. The higher speed TGV trains do have a smoother ride.

We took a tour from Nice to Cannes, Antibbes and Grasse (perfume factory). It was an air conditioned van that seated 6-8 but it was just our family of 4 on the tour. It only took 1/2 day and we saw all we wanted to see.

Also took the train to Monaco (20 minutes or so) and it was fantastic.
