The Nexus S is a “pure Google” experience and will be coming to Canada soon. The word on the street is that it’ll be available the first week of April through several carriers: TELUS, Bell, Rogers, Videotron, WIND and Mobilicity have all in one way or another confirmed this will be available to their customers.
We got our hands on an upcoming press release for the Nexus S, specifically from Future Shop. Loaded in the release is confirmation that the Nexus S is “available early April” and that pre-orders start on Monday, March 21st. In addition, Future Shop brings stellar news that both Koodo Mobile and Fido will be releasing the Android device. Those two flanker brands just received the jolt they needed to liven up their lineup! Here’s the full release:
