Bell and Solo Mobile Q4 line-up

One of our Bell ninjas has just come through for us in a huge way by sending us the entire Bell and Solo Mobile line-up for Q4. A lot of new devices are going to be hitting the shelves in time for the Christmas push and by the looks of it, Bell is ready to do some serious battle with rivals Rogers and Telus. Oh, and before you go ignoring this paragraph, it was internally announced that Bell will be getting an Android phone made by Motorola sometime in 2009. Just throwing that out there. The last and final thing that needs to be said is that these dates assume that not everything goes smoothly. As we all know, things can always happen at that cause delays, right RIM? Anyway, let’s go to it.

  • BlackBerry Storm launches on November 21st.
  • HTC Diamond in early November. Includes 200 songs on 4GB internal memory.
  • HTC Touch Pro will launch in early December
  • LG Reveal in early November. Includes “Shimmer Kit” consisting of a case and crystal covered Bluetooth headset by Swarovski.
  • LG Voyager in mid-November. Includes is 350 songs on a pre-loaded 2GB microSD card.

    Solo Mobile is a brand owned and operated by Bell Mobility created to compete with other Canadian value-minded mobile carriers
    Just like Koodoo and TELUS.

    It’s long overdue for BELL Mobility to have monthly roll-over minutes! Does this mean I can talk longer? (Wink)

    And the BlackBerry STORM launching on Nov. 21st.

    WOW, sounds like BELL is starting to get competitive.
