Telus BlackBerry Tour 9630 Shows its Smudgy Face

The only hint of a BlackBerry (NSDQ: RIMM) Tour coming to Telus (NYSE: TU) so far has been an accessory code found in its inventory database, but it seems like a launch is drawing closer as one lucky shmuck has a proper device in hand. Bell started getting their promo materials recently, so Telus isn’t the only one gearing up to get this thing out the door and we can only assume Verizon (NYSE: VZ) is making similar headway. All CDMA carriers must be pretty happy about getting the 9630, considering it’s the first “real” BlackBerry they’ve launched in awhile; the last full-QWERTY BlackBerry (i.e. not the Pearl Flip or Storm) to come their way was the 8330 Curve, or the push to talk 8350i in Telus’ case. The Tour should definitely bring them all up to speed with GSM carriers who have been enjoying the likes of the Bold and Curve 8900 for awhile now.
