Could it be that the Palm (NSDQ: PALM) Pre and Pixi are coming to TELUS (NYSE: TU) for Canadian consumption? That’s what I’ve been hearing recently.
As we all know, the Palm Pixi is due to hit Sprint for our American friends on November 15th… the date is really sneaking up on us, it’s less than a week away now… the Palm Pre has been available for some time now in the US, and Bell has been toting the Pre up in Canada for a little while now too. Those that have the Pre generally love the device, but I know there are some that would like to see the Pre hit more than one carrier… and that’s what we’re going to see in Canada in 2010.
With TELUS rumored to pick up the Pixi and Pre in early 2010, TELUS has, in a nutshell, upped their game. Just check out the list of devices TELUS is currently offering, a list which must have Rogers (NYSE: RCI) shaking just a little bit in their shiny red boots:
Put these devices together with a solid new HSPA+ network and a dash of extra Android love with the Motorola Milestone (coming soon too), the Palm Pre and Pixi are going to make TELUS the favorite for my recently fabricated ‘Most Awesome Canadian Carrier’ in 2010.
TELUS, all the stuff you’ve been doing recently… yeah, just keep doing it.
