TELUS' HTC Touch Pro2 now available at Best Buy

Retail

Oh Best Buy, how we love you so. It doesn’t seem to matter to you whether or not a carrier has officially launched a device, because you’re in the big box business and don’t care about trivialities like carrier announcements. The latest example of this sort of behavior is your peddling of TELUS’ HTC Touch Pro2 for $249.99 CAD despite the fact TELUS has yet to confirm pricing, let alone a launch date. But like we said, you’re Best Buy so you can afford to take these sort of risks. Just do us one favor, okay? Fix the crazy image that you have up on the site because you’re making the sexiest WinMo handset in creation look like one of those LG phones that wants to be a makeup compact. Kthx.

Thanks, Dennis!

    So the Best Buy ad was correct, $249 with a three year contract.

    As has been disclosed, yes the Telus version has a 3.5 mm audio port.

    And it will work with 6.5. In fact, go the the HTC site and you will see that HTC says so in their writeup of the device.

    The main question out there is not whether 6.5 will work (it’s only an interim OS until 7 comes out) is whether the TP2s can use WinMo7.

    I have the T-Mobile TP2 since last week. It’s a great phone and I will be getting 6.5

    But by the time 7 comes out I will be eligible and will by a replacement for it. Will sell this one on eBay and get the latest phone in 2010.

    So I don’t care about 7 and 6.5 is not an issue.
