Anyone up in Canada who doesn’t feel like getting the BlackBerry Torch 9800 from Rogers will be able to snag it from Telus at the same price on the same date: September 24 for $199 on a three-year contract. PR kindly reminded me that they didn’t confirm pricing. But I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s…
