We’ve known for Truly a while that Motorola’s Milestone was steaming its way towards Telus, but what we didn’t know — aside from the irritatingly vague Q1 2010 — was precisely what day you could expect to find yourself lined up for yours — you are getting one, aren’t you Canada? We’ve at this time heard that January 26th is the rumored target date for Telus’ missing hero Android device, and that suits us just fine — though, we’re still waiting on a dollar figure. But please keep in mind, dates — or unverified information, that can prove to be completely untrue — like this can slip, so don’t come pounding on our doors if this slips back down the calendar. We’ll be watching for Telus’ Milestone closely and hopefully hear a little more soon.

Telus’ Motorola Milestone gets a date? originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Tue, 12 Jan 2010 05:48:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

Remember when TracFone horrified the world with its Straight Talk phone selection back in July? Clearly the suits in Bentonville weren’t so scared, as at this time Walmart is latching on to that very plan and claiming it as its own. In over 3,200 of the outfit’s retail stores across America, consumers will be able to snag an admittedly pathetic cellie and a rather decent calling plan for just $30 a month. Three Hamiltons gets you 1,000 voice minutes, 1,000 texts and 30MB of mobile web access, not to mention nationwide coverage and free 411 calls. If that’s not Truly enough, a $45 per month option provides unlimited everything (voice / SMS / mobile web). Of course, the price of using an antediluvian LG 220, LG Slider 290 or Samsung 451 can’t be measured in mere dollars, but hey, humiliation’s only temporary — right?
