From time to time, these mobile devices are blessed with maintenance refreshes, bug fixes, custom ROMs and anything in between, and so many of them are floating around that it's easy for a sizable chunk to get lost in the mix. To make sure they don't escape without notice, we've gathered every possible update, hack, and other miscellaneous tomfoolery we could find during the last week and crammed them into one convenient <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/rr">roundup</a>. If you find something available for your device, please give us a shout at tips at engadget dawt com and let us know.

Along with the usual wireless, a TF300TL variant of the Android 4.0 slate has stopped by the agency with the 850MHz and 1,900MHz frequencies needed for HSPA 3G as well as, best of all, 700MHz and 1,700MHz support for LTE-based 4G. All four are what we'd look for in an <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ATT/">AT&amp;T</a>-oriented tablet, so don't be surprised if Ma Bell carries a 4G Transformer Pad before long. All but the 700MHz band would be handy for Canadian networks as well. There's no surefire evidence of when the tablet might make a more formal appearance, nor hints of whether or not it will keep the quad-core <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Tegra3/">Tegra 3</a>, although the slight spin on the regular TF300 formula could keep the wait short.</p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/24/asus-transformer-pad-tf300tl-hits-the-fcc/">ASUS Transformer Pad TF300TL hits the FCC with AT&amp;T-friendly LTE</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 24 May 2012 20:51:00 EST.

If we go by what looks to be an escaped Best Buy Canada flyer graphic, Samsung's Android 4.0 beast should be going up for pre-orders soon -- <em>MobileSyrup</em> hears May 30th -- with launches on at least Bell, Rogers, Telus and a Bell-owned Virgin Mobile around June 20th. We know that Samsung has publicly promised a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/03/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-hspa-arriving-in-may-4g-version-hitting-n/">US release in June</a>, so there's a real chance that we could be seeing a simultaneous North American appearance that brings everyone together in TouchWiz harmony. There's still some big questions left open even if we're seeing an accurate snapshot, such as when Mobilicity, Wind and other LTE-less carriers will get their units as well as whether or not the LTE versions <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/15/mystery-samsung-phone-with-snapdragon-s4-pops-up-in-tests/">use Snapdragons</a> instead of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Exynos4Quad/">Exynos 4 Quad</a>.<br /> <br /> [Thanks, Imdad]</p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/24/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-pops-up-in-best-buy-canada-with-june-20th-date/">Samsung Galaxy S III shows in Best Buy Canada leak due June 20th, maple syrup uncorked to celebrate</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 24 May 2012 19:45:00 EST.

Don't fret, as virtually every Canadian carrier and its mother has now pledged to carry the giant <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Android40/">Android 4.0</a> smartphone while you're on your summer vacation -- the first carrier commitments in North America that we've seen. Bell, Rogers, Telus, Virgin Mobile and Wind Mobile have all stepped up as national providers, while regional carriers such as SaskTel and Videotron have also signed on. The Galaxy S III is a special milestone for Virgin, as it's the first <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/4GLTE/">4G LTE</a> phone on the Bell-run budget network. We're still waiting for Mobilicity and other cellular services to hop on the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/event/samsung-mobile-unpacked-2012">Galaxy S III bandwagon</a>, and details like pricing and exact ship dates are still elusive, but odds are that Canucks will have a wide choice of carriers when the 4.8-inch flagship hits stores. <strong>Update</strong><strong>:</strong> Sure enough, Mobilicity is also onboard, which along with Wind Mobile makes it pretty clear that T-Mobile-friendly <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/AWS/">AWS</a> frequencies are baked in.</p><p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/07/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-canadian-carriers/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Samsung Galaxy S III gets a Canadian girlfriend as Bell, Rogers, Telus, Wind Mobile line up</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/05/07/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-canadian-carriers/">Samsung Galaxy S III gets a Canadian girlfriend as Bell, Rogers, Telus, Wind Mobile line up</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Mon, 07 May 2012 14:42:00 EST.

According to a <em>MobileSyrup</em> tipster, it'll arrive on Bell next week, in all its aluminum unibody glory. While the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/02/htc-one-x-review/">One X</a> looks to be <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/04/rogers-offers-htc-one-x-for-pre-order/">confined to Rogers</a> in the Land of the Maple Leaf, both the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/02/htc-one-s-review/">One S</a> and One V are going to be offered by Bell Mobility. The mole also hinted at pricing below CND $300, matching those entry-level credentials we've explored <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/13/htc-one-v-review/">just recently</a>.

Unlike WIND, however, Bell isn't flaunting a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/27/windows-phone-7-5-mango-review/">Mango-flavored</a> handset, but instead a Gingerbread-loaded <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/26/samsung-announces-galaxy-s-ii-lte-and-galaxy-s-ii-hd-lte-handset/">Samsung Galaxy S II HD LTE</a>. As you may have guessed by the "LTE" stuffed in its relatively long dub, this Sammy slab will be able to surf through the Mobility network's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/14/bell-begins-rolling-out-lte-network-today-to-trial-markets/">Long Term Evolution waves</a>. Sadly, the product page isn't showing us just how much cash you'll have to unleash, or how "soon" we can expect it to hit shelves around the True North. No worries, though, since Bell <em>does</em> have a signup page waiting for you to kindly place your name on it.</p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/19/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-hd-lte-coming-to-bell-canada/">Samsung Galaxy S II HD LTE listed as 'coming soon' on Bell Canada's site</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Thu, 19 Apr 2012 08:01:00 EST.

Sammy's <em>not a phone, not yet a tablet</em> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/28/samsung-galaxy-note-review/">Galaxy Note</a> has been stirring up its own excitement pre-CES, with <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/05/att-samsung-galaxy-note/">certain accessory partners</a> inadvertently slipping news of an <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/06/samsung-galaxy-note-att-press-images-leaked/">AT&amp;T bow</a>. While we've just gotten <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/08/att-galaxy-note-confirmed-at-ces/">confirmation that its US debut</a> will indeed pan out, it appears our neighbors to the north might also be getting their maple-soaked mitts on this stylus-equipped monster. As you can see in the Android Market screenshot above, an unlocked version of the handset is de<em>noted (</em>hardy har!) as the Bell Samsung GT-N7000. Does this herald an impending device announcement for the network? Hard to tell, as it could all very well just be a simple system error. But with the recent expansion of that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/14/bell-begins-rolling-out-lte-network-today-to-trial-markets/">Canadian carrier's 4G footprint</a>, the Note would undoubtedly make for a very attractive LTE lure.<br />

We've come across an internal document from <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/bell+mobility">Bell Mobility</a> that's bound to raise the hopes of a few good Canadians. Yes folks, we're talking Ice Cream Sandwich. The carrier to the north estimates that it'll have <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ice+cream+sandwich">Android 4.0</a> ready for the Sensation in February, which is to be followed by the Raider's update in March -- this handset may be more familiar to AT&amp;T customers as the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/htc,vivid">Vivid</a>. Pulling up the rear, users of the Galaxy S II are to expect the upgrade in April, and while the Optimus LTE is also mentioned, there's no specific time frame for that one. Certainly estimated release dates don't always come to fruition, but at least we know what Bell's aiming for, anyway.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/12/17/bell-mobility-hints-at-ice-cream-sandwich-release-dates-for-gala/">Bell Mobility hints at Ice Cream Sandwich release dates for Galaxy S II, Raider and Sensation</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sat, 17 Dec 2011 17:17:00 EST.

	BlackBerry fans who prefer conducting business at the speed of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/sprint/">"Now"</a> will be getting their <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/03/rims-blackberry-torch-9850-goes-official-for-sprint-and-us-cell/">new fixations</a> -- the Bold 9930 and Torch 9850 -- on August 21st. This is according to a pair of internal documents leaked from Sprint, which suggest RIM's new touch-enabled QWERTY handset will carry a $250 price tag, while its counterpart, the full touchscreen (and similarly specced) 9850, will sell for a more palatable $150. We understand the keyboard addiction is hard to break, but that's quite a monetary motivation to choose full touch.<br />
	<br />
	In related news up north, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/bell/">Bell</a> has beaten its August 16th <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/03/blackberry-bold-9900-and-torch-9810-to-hit-bell-on-august-16th/">target date</a> for the Bold 9900 and Torch 9810, as both devices are now available to its Canadian customers for $170 and $150, respectively. Granted, these prices represent Bell's standard three year commitment, but at least they remain reasonable -- unlike the option from a certain <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/03/blackberry-bold-9900-appears-in-leaked-t-mo-docs-reveals-august/">Magenta-themed</a> network. Also, we've got some good news for <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/rogers/">Rogers</a> customers, as the carrier has lowered the price of its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/10/blackberry-bold-9900-available-on-rogers-today-torch-9810-comes/">Bold 9900</a> to a more suitable $200, compared to the original $250. Hey Sprint, care to follow suit?<br />

Looks like the <a _mce_href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/03/t-mobiles-you-fix-gives-budget-minded-brits-a-new-approach-to-p/" href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/03/t-mobiles-you-fix-gives-budget-minded-brits-a-new-approach-to-p/">Samsung Galaxy Gio</a> -- the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/15/samsung-galaxy-ace-gio-fit-and-mini-gather-for-one-mega-hands/">poor man's Nexus S</a> -- is headed for an August 8th launch in our neighbor to the north's backyard. The budget entry Android phone has seen an OS bump to 2.3 since its debut at Mobile World Congress but, alas, is still riddled with same old, mid-grade 800MHz processor and 3 megapixel camera. Slated to hit Bell Mobility and Virgin Mobile on Monday, expect to snag this Galaxy handset for $150 outright, or <em>free</em> on a three-year contract -- but why do something crazy like that?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/05/samsung-galaxy-gio-heads-to-canada-august-8th-150-off-contract/">Samsung Galaxy Gio heads to Canada August 8th, $150 off-contract</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Fri, 05 Aug 2011 23:08:00 EST.

Looks like someone took the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/droid3">Droid 3</a>, slapped a new name on it, and shipped it north to our friends in Canada, but added one neat twist -- it's now rocking an extra "G." Officially known as the XT860 4G, Bell's version of Motorola's QWERTY slider comes packed with a HSPA+ radio that can handle the 850MHz, 1900MHz, and 2100MHz bands. That means not only can our ice-sweeping neighbors enjoy blazing fast mobile data, but they can roam the globe without sacrificing their deliciously speedy connection. Otherwise, you're looking at the same 4-inch, dual-core Gingerbread device that just launched here in the states.

Consider your desires addressed. Not only is Bell coming out with the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/20/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-headed-to-bell-on-july-14/">Samsung Galaxy S II</a> in the near future, the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/27/htc-sensation-review/">HTC Sensation 4G</a> is now officially in stock for $150 on a three-year commitment. The "4G" moniker remains since the device is compatible with Bell's 14.4 Mbps <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/hspa+/">HSPA+ network</a>. Aside from this, however, we can expect the same goodies seen in the US version: a 1.2GHz dual-core CPU, Gingerbread, 4.3-inch qHD display with 960 x 540 resolution, and an 8 megapixel camera (just to name a few). This does unfortunately mean that you'll now have two very capable "<a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/superphone/">superphones</a>" to choose from -- although there's nothing really stopping you from getting both, is there?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/05/htc-sensation-4g-heads-to-canada-available-for-150-on-bell/">HTC Sensation 4G heads to Canada, available for $150 on Bell</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Tue, 05 Jul 2011 13:30:00 EST.

The odds that you'll have a North American spotting of Nokia's audacious <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/25/nokia-oro-is-covered-with-18ct-gold-on-the-outside-tinged-with/">18-karat gold Oro</a> just became more likely. That's because the handset recently appeared before the FCC and was certified for frequencies utilized by AT&amp;T, Bell, Telus, Rogers, T-Mobile, Wind and Mobilicity. That's not to suggest any of the carriers are taking a bet with this one, but it leaves a good opportunity for someone to flaunt their excess while using their network of choice. The stark photography certainly doesn't embellish the bling that we'd seen in earlier press shots, but don't kid yourself -- anything lavished with gold is likely to scream "Mug me" on busy street corners. Lest we reiterate, the phone is nothing more than a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/14/nokia-announces-trifecta-of-new-phones-c6-c7-and-a-qwerty-slid/">gilded C7</a> and it's selling for under a Benjamin on contract as the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/21/nokia-astound-for-t-mobile-coming-april-6th-for-80-hands-on-wi/">Nokia Astound</a>. If you're genuinely wanting to attract attention in the US, running Symbian is thoroughly sufficient.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/05/29/nokia-oro-passes-fcc-cleared-for-a-gaudy-stateside-landing/">Nokia Oro passes FCC, cleared for a gaudy stateside landing</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sun, 29 May 2011 09:14:00 EST.

The FCC has seen a decent share of WebOS devices this year, having first tested the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/12/hp-veer-shows-its-cute-little-face-in-fcc/">Veer</a> in February, and most recently HP's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/26/hp-touchpad-hits-the-fcc/">Touchpad</a> (which we reported earlier today). Now, it appears the regulator is examining the forthcoming Pre 3, and while none of the documents specifically name the device, based on the size and proportion of the label, we think it'll pair nicely with a certain <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/09/the-hp-pre-3/">3.6-inch display</a>. We've also noted the diagram mentions a battery compartment, suggesting it's not the Veer, which is rumored to have a sealed battery. Whatever the device may be, it's packing WebOS 2.3 -- and judging from the 1900 / 850MHz 3G bands, it seems destined for AT&amp;T, Rogers, Bell, or Telus in North America. Follow the break for a peek at the FCC label.<p><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/26/hps-pre-3-gets-an-emissions-test-at-the-fcc-likely-destined-fo/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>HP's Pre 3 gets an emissions test at the FCC, likely destined for AT&amp;T</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/26/hps-pre-3-gets-an-emissions-test-at-the-fcc-likely-destined-fo/">HP's Pre 3 gets an emissions test at the FCC, likely destined for AT&amp;T</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Tue, 26 Apr 2011 18:33:00 EST.

If you happen to reside just north of the American border, you might have heard that Canadian carrier Bell is now offering the Motorola <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/atrix">Atrix</a> from $169.95 on a three year commitment, all the way up to $599.95 sans contract. While this groovy smartphone is a welcomed addition for local Android fanatics, the early adopters have learned that -- much like its AT&amp;T <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/11/atandt-says-its-testing-hsupa-on-atrix-4g-will-turn-it-on-eventu/">counterpart</a> -- it lacks <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/hsupa">HSUPA</a>. This is confirmed by <em>xda-developers</em> members who see a mere 400kpbs upload speed on their maple syrup-flavored Atrix, which is bad news for YouTube celebrities and the likes on Bell Mobility. Alas, we've yet to hear from the carrier regarding this issue, but let's just hope that the Atrix will be set free before Bell's headquarters gets taken over by furious green robots.<br />

You may not be able to read the model number on that miniscule label, but you're looking at a cross section of the Samsung GT-I9020A -- colloquially known as <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/27/nexus-s-coming-in-a-new-atandt-flavor/">the Nexus S for AT&amp;T</a> -- which just made its debut at that Ellis Island of wireless devices, the FCC authorization database. Sure enough, it's sporting the requisite 850 / 1900MHz WCDMA bands for the American carrier (though it could just as easily appear <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/20/nexus-s-comes-to-canada-courtesy-of-mobilicity-and-maybe-bell/">at Canada's big three</a>) as well as Bluetooth, single-band 802.11 b/g/n WiFi, and 13.56MHz for RFID. In case you're curious, the latter indicates that the curvy handset will almost certainly keep <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/12/06/samsung-nexus-s-utilizing-nxps-pn544-nfc-chip/">its NFC capabilities</a>. So, Samsung... are you about ready to tell us about that <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/12/samsung-gt-i9023-hits-fcc-a-new-version-of-the-nexus-s-with-and/">GT-i9023</a>?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/13/samsung-nexus-s-revisits-the-fcc-this-time-with-bands-for-atandt/">Samsung Nexus S revisits the FCC, this time with bands for AT&amp;T</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sun, 13 Feb 2011 08:49:00 EST.

This shelf tag was apparently spotted this weekend at a Best Buy in Houston, and it speaks for itself: <a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/tag/white,iphone4">white iPhone 4</a>, AT&amp;T, $599.99 off contract (the same price as the black). Of course, we all know this thing is coming within the next few weeks at this point -- there's just too much <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/17/white-iphone-4-shows-up-in-vodafone-germanys-inventory-system/">evidence</a> pointing in that direction -- but the fact that we've got big box retailers printing and placing tags for it now suggests that it's coming sooner rather than later. Oh, and in case you're wondering, that QR code link is dead at the moment -- we've linked it below in case you want to give it a shot.<br />

<strong>Update</strong>: Looks like The Source (<a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/02/radio-shack-rebranding-to-the-shack/">Canada's version of Radio Shack</a>) is also making room. See for yourself after the break. Thanks, Anonymous!<br />

If you're game for <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/WindowsPhone7/">Windows Phone 7</a> on Bell, you've got one lonely option right now, and you'd better like landscape QWERTY sliders: the LG Optimus Quantum, a phone you may know better simply as the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/11/15/lg-quantum-brings-its-qwerty-slider-to-atandt/">Quantum</a> on AT&amp;T in the US. Looks like that might change in just a few days' time, though, as <em>MobileSyrup</em> has scored some launch documentation for HTC's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/HD7/">HD7</a> -- a phone that's on T-Mobile in the States -- that indicates it's launching on the 10th of this month. Unfortunately, pricing is a little uncertain because the documents are showing CAD $599.95 (about $606) regardless of contract length, so realistically, that's probably what you can expect to pay if you choose to forgo a contract altogether. At this point, we'd be curious what Microsoft and its hardware partners have in store for round two of Windows Phone 7's retail push rather than buying a first-generation device -- but then again, it's always hard to resist a 4.3-inch display, isn't it?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/02/bell-bringing-htc-hd7-on-february-10th/">Bell bringing HTC HD7 on February 10th?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 02 Feb 2011 05:10:00 EST.

According to <a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/tag/mobilicity">Mobilicity</a> CEO Dave Dobbin, the handset will be available on the company's <a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/search/?q=aws&amp;invocationType=wl-gadget">AWS</a> band, but he also said that Bell, Telus, and Rogers will carry the Nexus S as well. If true, that means Samsung will be providing another model of the phone with support for WCDMA 850 / 1900 for it to work with Canada's big three wireless providers. We can only hope that's the case, as said model would be usable on AT&amp;T's network -- making an awful lot of us living south of Canada quite happy.

Noticing a trend here? First we had the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Infuse4G/">Infuse 4G</a> from Samsung, and now we've got the Atrix 4G from Motorola featuring a whopping 1GB of RAM -- so it would seem this is the device we'd had rumored as the <a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/tag/olympus,motorola">Olympus</a>. Announced at AT&amp;T's CES-based <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/live-from-atandts-developer-summit/">Developer Summit</a> today, the phone is the first to be unveiled for the carrier's lineup with a dual-core processor, but the fun doesn't stop there: it's got a 960 x 540 display that gives the iPhone 4's pixel density a run for its money, a fingerprint reader, support for 802.11n on both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, a ridiculous 1,930mAh battery that dwarfs the average 1,300 to 1,500mAh cell you see in most modern smartphones, HD video capture, and a wild set of peripherals -- HD Dock and Laptop Dock, primarily -- that allow you to use the Atrix in a "webtop mode" that bears a striking resemblance to a desktop operating system. Follow the break for the full press release!<br />

<strong>Update: </strong>It's coming to Orange UK and Bell Mobility as well, with Orange's version due Q2 2011 and Bell's "in the coming months."<br />

Bell Mobility has been selling the phone for the past few days, seemingly in its pure HTC <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/htc,sense">Sense</a>-ified form -- for better or for worse -- meaning you get all the features of the company's new HTCSense.com offering, map caching, and the like. Pricing clocks in at CAD $129.95 (about $130) on a three-year deal, quickly scaling up to CAD $499.95 ($500) contract-free with options (albeit economically illogical ones) at the one- and two-year levels. Will someone please do us a solid and start importing these stateside en masse? Preferably unlocked?<br />

It's a sad day for fans of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/android">Android</a>, brushed aluminum exteriors, and retina-searing AMOLED displays. Bell's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/htc,legend">HTC Legend</a> seems to have come to the end of its days, the provider moving the phone to "end of life" status due to "ongoing supply constraints from the manufacturer." <em>Phandroid</em> speculates this is due to AMOLED shortages slowing down HTC manufacturing, and that certainly seems like a reasonable conclusion. We also checked out some <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/17/htc-legend-with-north-american-3g-now-available-unlocked/">other suppliers</a> of the phone and they too are not listing it in stock, so this <em>could</em> be a rather abrupt end of the road for one of the best looking, though <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/10/htc-legend-review/">not necessarily best performing</a>, Android handsets.<br />

Hot on the heels of a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/07/iphone-4-confirms-june-24-date-with-o2-uk/">three-way UK celebration</a>, Deutche Telekom's reportedly managed to continue its coup -- if the company's Twitter account is to be believed, German exclusivity of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/iPhone4/">iPhone 4</a> will go to T-Mobile this June. Meanwhile, the English (and French) speaking world is still rolling out iPhone launch dates, as Canada's Rogers, Telus and Bell Mobility have all quietly announced the new superphone will be available "in the coming weeks" or "coming soon." Americans at Engadget HQ are supremely jealous of your choices, Canada... and rest assured that we feel Germany's pain, too.<br />

We knew there had to be a catch with the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/novatel,mifi/">Novatel MiFi</a> 3G routers -- they were just too convenient. But, little did we know that catch involved danger to our health and wellbeing! Bell Mobility has been sending <em>UPS</em> couriers around (real people holding envelopes, not <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/courier,microsoft">unicorns</a>) to owners of the Novatel <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Mifi2372/">MiFi 2372</a>, delivering dire-sounding letters (a copy can be found after the break) telling them to discontinue use of their routers due to faulty battery packs and, if that wasn't enough, they were all remotely deactivated yesterday morning. Owners are told to send their MiFis back to the company for replacement, a process said to take a whopping six to eight weeks. Novatel is sending U998 Turbo Sticks to those affected for use in the interim, but that doesn't do you much good if your device lacks USB ports, like our unfortunate tipster's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/ipad">iPad</a>. We can understand the frustration of giving up your gadget for two months, the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/explodingbattery">alternative</a> doesn't sound too appealing either.<br />
<br />
<strong>Update</strong>: Kevin from Novatel dropped us a comment with the company's official statement. We have it after the break.<br />
<br />
<strong>Update 2</strong>: A Novatel rep would like us to clarify that the couriers in question are from UPS, and also come equipped with return envelopes for the affected 2372s. So, if anyone from FedEx tries to deliver any documentation about this situation, it's probably a trap.<br />

Fortunately, Rogers, Bell, and Telus have been hard at work playing nice long enough to ensure that their respective video calling services play nice one another, and they've just announced the successful completion of inter-carrier trials. The companies are quick to point out that this makes them the "first inter-carrier partnership in North America" to support 3GPP-compliant video calling, something that should hopefully make AT&amp;T and T-Mobile feel at least a fleeting moment of shame. No word on exactly when the service will be available to end users.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/24/bell-telus-rogers-trial-inter-carrier-video-calling/">Bell, Telus, Rogers trial inter-carrier video calling</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 24 Feb 2010 16:28:00 EST.

We've got part of that answer now that Bell has reported fourth quarter earnings, and in a nutshell, it seems like this may have been a huge gamble that paid off. The company's wireless unit saw a 2 percent decrease against the previous in EBIDTA -- and ARPU fell by CAD $1.48 to CAD $51.08 -- but here's where the bubbly gets broken out: it saw a 39.3 percent increase in gross activations to 523,000, up 11.3 percent year-over-year. That works out to 163,000 net adds, almost certainly attributable to the launch of HSPA service and a variety of hot new handsets (and some older ones -- the iPhone 3GS, for instance) that gave some disgruntled Rogers customer the ammo they needed to bolt. It'll likely be a good long while before Bell actually goes net positive on its massive network investment, but early signs certainly suggest that it was the right move to make.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/02/06/bell-scores-163k-net-adds-in-q4-has-hspa-launch-to-thank/">Bell scores 163K net adds in Q4, has HSPA launch to thank</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sat, 06 Feb 2010 22:41:00 EST.

How long does it take for a smartphone to go from two hundred bucks on contract all the way down to a big, fat goose egg? If you're Bell -- and the phone is the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/PalmPre/">Palm Pre</a> -- the answer is right around five months, apparently. Following its <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/27/video-palm-pre-jumps-the-border-now-on-bell/">August release</a> and a couple of <a href="http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/10/23/bell-drops-pre-by-50-now-down-to-149-95/">mid-course</a> <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/07/palm-pre-price-keeps-sinking-on-bell-down-to-100/">pricing corrections</a>, Bell's now making Palm's first webOS-based device available for free just as long as you're willing to commit to three years at a minimum spend of CAD $50 (about $47) a month. The move likely comes on the announcement of the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/PrePlus/">Pre Plus</a>, perhaps as a preemptive strike against any of its competitors planning on carrying it -- and if we were Sprint right now, we'd be paying very, very close attention to these guys.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/24/bells-palm-pre-now-free-in-exchange-for-three-years-of-your/">Bell's Palm Pre now free -- in exchange for three years of your life</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Sun, 24 Jan 2010 03:59:00 EST.

The Galaxy looks to be a near-perfect replica of the Galaxy found internationally, bringing over the same 3.2-inch glass AMOLED display, 8GB of internal storage expandable to 40GB, 5 megapixel camera, and Android guts (1.5, we sadly presume) that you find elsewhere. What makes this one a little special, though, is the fact that it's got HSPA 850 / 1900 instead of the T-Mobile-friendly AWS bands that you find on the version sold unlocked in the US, so we imagine you'd be able to find a way to sneak this onto AT&amp;T in the States if you were really desperate for it. The N97, meanwhile, looks to be a dead ringer for the version offered in the States; it runs a staggering CAD $199.95 (about $190) on a three-year contract, while the Galaxy is a little closer to reality at CAD $99.95 ($95) for the same duration.<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/12/11/samsung-galaxy-goes-where-no-man-has-ever-gone-before-bells-hs/">Samsung Galaxy, Nokia N97 go where no man has ever gone before: Bell's HSPA network</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Fri, 11 Dec 2009 01:06:00 EST.

Canada's Bell and Telus are going hog wild with handset selection since the launch of their new <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/24/judge-sides-with-telus-says-rogers-most-reliable-claim-reeks/">Rogers-matching (if not beating)</a> 21Mbps HSPA network -- one need look no further than the launch of the LG <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/BL40/">BL40</a> for evidence of that -- but there's at least one glaring issue: Bell's yet to launch an Android set. That puts 'em at a distinct disadvantage against Telus, which <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/26/telus-kicks-off-hspa-network-with-iphone-november-5th-htc-hero/">already has an HSDPA 860 / 1900 cut of the HTC Hero</a> on shelves -- but it looks like that won't be an issue for long. A scanned poster that's apparently already up in Bell stores has turned up on the ever-reliable interwebs this week clearly showing Samsung's <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Galaxy/">Galaxy</a> posing alongside the already-launched <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/OmniaII/">Omnia II</a> and <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/Impact/">Impact</a>; the carrier doesn't do us the favor of mentioning a date here, but it can't be long -- wouldn't want to lose the Google lovers to Telus and Rogers, right?<p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/25/samsung-galaxy-looking-confirmed-as-bells-first-android-phone/">Samsung Galaxy looking confirmed as Bell's first Android phone</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 25 Nov 2009 08:58:00 EST.

Just weeks after Palm's Pre <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/23/bell-drops-pre-by-50-now-down-to-149-95/">sunk to CAD $149.95</a> on <a href="http://www.engadget.com/tag/pre,bell">Bell</a>, the outfit's first-ever webOS phone has now stooped to just CAD $99.95. That still requires a 3-year contract, of course, but man -- a single bill for a smartphone like the Pre? Anyone tossing out guesses on how long it takes Sprint to follow suit (and embarrass the <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/26/palm-pixi-on-sale-november-15-exclusively-at-sprint-for-100-on/">Pixi</a>)?<br />

That's not what really caught our eye, though: like Rogers, Bell's now offering video calling, a feature standardized with UMTS and arbitrarily disabled both by T-Mobile and AT&amp;T in the States (though the latter offers the far less useful one-way Video Share service at $4.99 a month for just 25 minutes of usage). Granted, video calling hasn't exactly caught on like wildfire in Europe where it's widely deployed -- but when you consider that they're charging CAD $5 (about $4.70) a month for unlimited use, it seems like a worthwhile add-on even if you only use it for a few minutes now and then. It also makes AT&amp;T Video Share -- and its pricing structure -- look even more ridiculous than it already did, doesn't it?<p>Filed under: <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/bell-mobility/" rel="tag">Bell Mobility</a>, <a href="http://www.engadget.com/category/umts/" rel="tag">UMTS</a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/11/04/imagine-that-bell-offers-video-calling-on-the-cheap/">Imagine that: Bell offers video calling on the cheap</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> on Wed, 04 Nov 2009 21:44:00 EST.

Bell has announced that its shiny new 21Mbps airwaves will be available to the public at large starting November 4, along with a <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/06/bell-nabs-iphone-deal-in-canada-ends-rogers-reign-of-terror/">host</a> of <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/27/bell-announces-hspa-turbo-stick-mifi-for-shiny-new-network/">devices</a> ready to take full advantage of it; perhaps most impressive, though, is that they'll be covering fully 93 percent of the country's population out of the gate, which should make the new network a viable option immediately for would-be switchers. Your move, Rogers.<br />
