TELUS puts up BlackBerry Torch 9800 “Coming Soon” page

By on August 27, 2010 at 8:46am in Mobile News, Telus Mobility News


The new BlackBerry Torch 9800 is sure making it’s way around the carriers. Bell threw up a info page earlier this week and now TELUS has come out with their own. There’s no word on an official launch date but rumours have launch parties starting on the 21st. Other rumours are that TELUS will be releasing this on the 16th of September. In addition, no pricing has been confirmed.

TELUS describes the Torch as the following: “The BlackBerry Torch smartphone closes the gap between inspiration and action; it keeps you closely informed and makes it easy to drive your communications and produce the results you want.”

  1. BB its like fax, sometimes you do have to use it…but why fax if you can email? Unless you don’t know how to use a computer.

  2. Hi RIM, i’m a time traveller from the past. I came here from the year 2007 and i noticed that your technology is at the same level it was back in 2007 but you’re selling it at the same price as your competitors 2010 devices. How did you manage to suck so much and why are ignorant people still planing to waste their hard earned $$ on such ancient technology ??!

    • I also hear that when they showed Jim Balsillie & Mike Lazaridis the new 9800, they said TORCH IT, so that what Marketing named IT!

    • EVERY single one of your posts is useless and adds no value. I don’t understand why you can’t voice your single baseless opinion once instead of repeating the same thing in multiple nonsensical ways.

      Mobile syrup, I would ask you to please monitor Adi’s posts as a majority of them have been rated very poorly.

  3. BBM is like some kind of crack. People are so addicted to it, they’ll put up with all KINDS of crap just to keep using it…

  5. Can someone tell me honestly, what Blackberry has to offer OTHER than BBM. BBM is MSN/AIM/etc except NOT cross-platform. I dont understand, as a former bb user how I was able to sacrifice SO MUCH just for BBM. RIM’s non-business marketshare is balancing on an instant messenger…

  8. This is a great phone for people that either have no choice (business), or people that have never tried an iPhone or Android device.

  11. The screen shots in the Telus “coming soon” pages show a date of Monday, Sept 27. Is this their hint?
