Telus to get Samsung Omnia and Palm Treo Pro

Go Canada!

Not only will Bell be offering the Palm Treo Pro and the Samsung Omnia, but now it looks as though Telus will have them too! Though, I wouldn’t celebrate just yet — looks like Telus is going to be charging more than Bell ($20 and $50, respectively) than Bell, and that’s based on signing up for a 3-year contract, too! Eep. I’m betting that there are more than a few of you out there who aren’t happy about that. But being that these devices are oh-so-cool, will you pay anyway?

Let us know what you think!

Samsung Omnia comes to Bell Canada in April?

omnia-4 Could it be true? Listen up, Canadians! A tipster from BGR is reporting that Bell is getting ready to launch the Samsung Omnia in April! Specifically somewhere between April 9th and April 12th.

The Omnia runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and has a 3.2″ 240×400 touchscreen display, and the usual — GPS, WiFi, EVDO Rev. o / Rev. A…

But at the top of the list of cool features for the Omnia is its super cool 5MP camera with autofocus, face detection, smile detection, LED flash, image stabilization and DivX/XviD video playback!

No pricing or launch details confirmed by Bell as of yet, but stay tuned!

Sony Ericsson’s finally given up the goods — their Canada website now features the long awaited Xperia X1a under phones “Coming Soon”!

We’ve heard rumours that Rogers is scheduled to get the Xperia X1 for an August launch. Fingers crossed!

The Xperia X1 features a 3-inch WVGA touchscreen, full QWERTY keyboard, WiFI, GPS, and 3.2MP camera. Sure, it’s no Toshiba TG01 – but who can keep up with all the new fancy gadgets kids are raving about these days, right?
