BlackBerry Tour hits up Bell… tomorrow!
Ready for some good news and some bad news, Canadians? The good is that Bell has pulled an ace out of its sleeve and announced it will begin selling the BlackBerry Tour tomorrow, July 11th, for $249.95 CAD on a 3-year contract ($699.95 contract-free). The bad news? Supplies are likely to be somewhat limited for the first few days and many dealers won’t have a single device on hand. The launch had been scheduled for the 17th as per Bell’s announcement, but apparently sticking it to TELUS where the sun (and its Tour) don’t shine is a bit more important than actually having phones on hand to sell to customers. Isn’t spite exciting?
Don’t understand what the point was to prematurely launch the Tour in spite of TELUS with limited stock availability. It will just be another Storm situation all over again! I thought that Bell was supposed to be taking their focus off BlackBerry to boost sales of other smartphones…
Cell Phones won’t working planes, where Wi-Fi will work in planes, therefore dual connectivity is more flexibile, thereby making one more productive or simply enabling them to stay in touch easier.
Additionally, this is helpful, when one is out of range (i.e. international) and don’t want to pay a high roaming rates.
