Canadians beat us out, Bell and Virgin mobile launch Samsung Galaxy Nexus

It is not all that often that Canada beats us to the punch for a new device. It happens only on rare occasions. Lucky for them, today Bell and Virgin launched the Galaxy Nexus for our friends to the north. The phone is priced at $159 for a three-year contract or can be purchased out right for $649.99. Even though I wouldn’t be all that excited about doing a 3 year contract, that extra year lands them with the device at half what Verizon is said to be selling it.

I would go snag one if I lived up there. Mostly just to send pictures of me using to all my Verizon friends who are still waiting on it. Yes, I am that guy.

I worked at T-Mobile for 5 years. I was the go to guy for Android phones and training. That passion didn't stop even after my departure from the company. I currently moved up from my MyTouch 3G to a Samsung Vibrant. A lot has changed in a very short time. I look forward to all the latest and greatest every time I wake up.
