Bell Mobility in Canada is set to add two mid-range devices to its portfolio. The first one, Samsung Ace, is considered to be the BlackJack's younger brother, boasting full QWERTY keyboard, Windows Mobile 6 Standard edition, 1.3 megapixel camera, microSD slot, Bluetooth support. The lack of 3G and WiFi may be a dealbreaker for some [...]

Following Telus, the other CDMA carrier in Canada — Bell Mobility — is adding the BlackBerry Curve 8330. You already know what's inside, let me do a quick recap — this baby has both EV-DO and GPS, meaning you'll be able to do your "push-email thing" faster than ever, while also making sure you don't [...]

Few days ago we saw Canadian Bell Mobility adding two interesting devices. I guess it’s the Christmas shopping season, the people of Canada should thank to for the sudden expansion of the carriers’ phone portfolios. Anyway, the first device is the MOTO RAZR2 V9m, which we’ve already covered in quite a few posts before — hence I ain’t gonna waste your time writing about RAZR2 specs. I’ll only say that Bell Mobility is selling it for CA$249.99 with a 3-year term or for $CA449.99 sans any contract. The other device is RIM’s BlackBerry Pearl 8130 — the one with the built-in GPS — which you can get for CA$149.99 with a 3-year term or for $CA449.99 without a contract. Guess the contract that comes with RIM’s device costs more, as with a 3-year term the device is cheaper than RAZR2, even though both cost the same without a contract… [Via: MobileInCanada ] ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:Verizon's BlackBerry Pearl 8130 on pre-order - get your BlackBerry Pearl 2.0 nowTelus brings the BlackBerry Pearl 2.0 to CanadaSprint's BlackBerry 8130 Pearl for $199Telus adds MOTO RAZR2 V9mSprint announces BlackBerry 8130 Pearl 2 for release next month

Choosing the right music phone just got tougher for Canadians. Previously we saw Bell Mobility adding Motorola ROKR Z6m , and now the same carrier is offering the LG Muziq. We’ve already wrote about the LG’s music-centric clamshell when it was first introduced on Sprint . I’ll only repeat it comes with a 1.3 MP camera, two screens (external - 10 lines, 262K color, 128×160 pixel; internal - 11 lines, 262K color,176×220 pixel), stereo Bluetooth (A2DP) support, FM transmitter that allows you to play music over any any FM radio source (like in your car), dedicated touch-sensitive music control keys, SIRIUS Satellite Radio support, and of course the microSD expansion slot. Right now, Bell is selling the LG Muziq for CA$79.95 with a 3-year term, CA$129.95 with a 2-year term, CA$249.95 for a single-year term, or for CA$299.95 sans any contract… Full press release follows after the jump. PRESS RELEASE - LG today announced the availability of the LG MUZIQ(TM), an innovative mobile phone packed with rich music and other multimedia features and a unique new interface that delivers a personalized user experience, exclusively from Bell Mobility. “This is the ultimate music phone because it is the only cell phone in Canada with a Music Broadcaster that lets you play music from your cell phone on any FM radio,” said Andrew Barrett, Vice President, Marketing, LG Electronics Canada, “Stylish music lovers no longer need a separate cell phone and MP3 player because the LG Muziq combines the best of both in one striking and technological leading edge unit.” The LG MUZIQ delivers an extensive array of entertainment services such as full-length movies, full-track song and album downloads and SIRIUS Satellite Radio.
