Bell to launch the Samsung Galaxy on December 10th?

Rumor

samsung-i7500

As it currently stands, Bell is the only major Canadian wireless carrier that doesn’t have at least one Android handset in its line-up, but if the latest rumors are to be believed, this will only be the case for another couple days as Bell is said to be getting the Samsung Galaxy i7500 on December 10th. Because it’s received little attention Statesi… er Province-side, we think it’s worth quickly running over the specs: 3.2″ HVGA AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and LED flash, Wi-Fi, GPS, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, 528MHz processor, 8GB internal memory and it’s running Android 1.5 “Cupcake”. Pricing is still a mystery, but hey — Bell users have had plenty of time to save up.

    Confirmed by Samsung rep going around and giving training…

    In fact, Bell will launch 2 Android phones soon.. not just one.

    $599 outright,

    $200 3-year contract discount

    and then likely a $200 data lto

    sooo should be $199

    Since it’s on bell, I assume it has 3G for NA networks (850/1900 UMTS). I might import this, the Rogers Magic, or a Hero. I need an AT&T enabled 3G Android device!

      If you’re going to do that, Telus is getting the HSPA Motorola Milestone (aka the Droid) early next year, and Telus uses the same bands as Rogers, Bell, and AT&T. I’d hold out for that one from the current crop of phones.

    …it also has a scratch-resistant display.
