Telus has just announced a release of the new low-to-mid range phone - Samsung R500.

As for the specs, there’s the 1.3 MP camera, Bluetooth, and of course microSD memory expansion slot. In addition, the Samsung R500 supports Telus’ suite of mobile services, meaning that potential customers will be able to access TELUS Mobile Music, TELUS Mobile Radio, and Windows Live Messenger. Finally, let’s discuss the pricing. Apparently, the R500 is somewhat significant device, hence the Canadian carrier wanted to grab the exclusive deal from Samsung. Meaning, you’ll be able to buy the R500 only from Telus for CA$49.99 on a three-year term or CA$249.99 without a contract… ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:Alltel to add Samsung R200, R500 to its offeringTelus launches Samsung SCH-m620 aka UpStageTelus adds entry-level Samsung U410Telus releases Fastap-equipped ZTE D90Telus adds Samsung U540 to its offering

In preparation for the Christmas season, Telus has added the low-end LG 285 phone.

In addition, users of this device will also be able to chat with their buddies on Windows Live Messenger and check their email while on-the-go.

We haven’t seen Telus announcing a wireless card for laptops for some time. Naturally, they’ve decided to change their mind just in time for the Christmas shopping season, and we have them offering the Sierra Wireless Aircard 597E. According to Sierra Wireless , the new ExpressCard uses the EV-DO Rev. A network to provide users with download speeds of up to 3.1 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 1.8 Mbps. So if you live in Canada, have an appropriate laptop (with ExpressCard slot) and Telus is covering your area — maybe it’s time to extend your mobility. The carrier is selling the Aircard 597E for CA$49.99 with a 3-year term, or for CA$299.99 sans any contract… [Via: MobileInCanada ] ---Related Articles at IntoMobile:CTIA: Sierra Wireless Finally Announces Their AirCard 595U EV-DO Rev A USB modemSierra Wireless AirCard 595U EVDO Rev.

There’s no doubt Telus, just like any other carrier around the world, is preparing for the hot Christmas season. Lately, we’ve spotted them adding the gold LG Shine 8700 to their portfolio. The device is practically the same as the original Shine, which we saw introduced on Telus back in September , it’s just… well gold finished. Meaning, if you live in Canada, or have someone very special living/working there who needs a new mobile phone - this device can say “I love you” much better than your mouth can. Diamonds may be the girl’s best friend, so I guess the gold is the next best thing.
