Two Canadian carriers are interested to bring the Samsung Galaxy Rugby LTE to its customers, Bell and TELUS. The first of the two will go ahead with the device launch on November 1st even though its PTT LTE network won’t go live until the first half of 2013. In other words, until that part is cleared, Bell customers will be “stuck” to still-solid HSPA+ speeds.
As for TELUS, it will get a head start, with plans to start selling the phone before the end of October.
Price was not unveiled, but MobileSyrup claims that the SIM-free device will go for around $400-$500.
Again, the rugged Galaxy Rugby LTE packs a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 4-inch WVGA screen, 5-megapixel rear-facing camera, 1.3-megapixel front-facing one, 1850mAh battery, NFC, DLNA, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and so on.

The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
