Let’s just get this part out of the way, the HTC Desire HD is an absolutely stunning phone. HTC has stepped up their game, brought the world yet another piece of great hardware, and optimizing their already great software, making a solid successor to the original Desire. This follow-up to the original HTC Desire packs…
Mobilicity launched their Ottawa network yesterday, capping off a series of openings in Vancouver and Edmonton. These are the first markets that Mobilicity has hit after an extended stay in Toronto.

Mobilicity announced that the Motorola Spice would be coming out in Canada yesterday, and just in time for opening up their new markets (like here in Ottawa) tomorrow, they gave us a bit of a sneak peek.
