BlackBerry Torch hitting Canada via Telus, Bell, Virgin Mobile and Rogers


Recently we heard a lot of news related to the BlackBerry Torch, previously known as BlackBerry 9800 Slider. We saw that the first carrier to launch this handset in USA is AT&T. We saw it passing FCC, and we also saw some official photos and specs. The BlackBerry Torch is a new, improved and the latest BlackBerry device, and it’s running on BlackBerry OS 6.

Canadian carriers are in love with the new BlackBerry Torch. Telus, Rogers, Bell and Virgin Mobile have announced that they will be launching the BlackBerry Torch in Canada. Telus has said that they will be launching it this year, no words on any exact release date. Virgin Mobile has said that it’s coming soon, so stay tuned. Rogers has said that they will be launching it in coming weeks, and Bell has said that they will be launching it this fall.

So that’s a good news for our lovely Canadian readers. Stay tuned with us for more news.
