Telus BlackBerry Tour and Storm Won’t Play Nice With Upcoming HSPA Network

So let’s say you’re a Telus customer sporting a BlackBerry Storm and Tour… Both devices work just swimmingly on the Telus network, and you’re happy. But what happens when Telus launches their new HSPA network? According to a leaked internal document dated in late July:

‘Please note that our current line up of HSPA devices won’t be compatible with the Canadian HSPA network. When the HSPA Network launches, Telus will be providing a new HSPA line up of devices that will work on that Network’

So what does it all mean? In a nutshell, if you’re a Telus Storm or Tour user, you’ll need to upgrade to a new-and-improved device to take advantage of the new network when it arrives… It’s that, or stick with what you’ve got and enjoy slower speeds. Enjoy slower speeds? That sounds odd. 🙂
