We knew it was coming, and the day Canadian WinMo users have been dying to see arrive has, well, arrived. Telus Mobility has at long last decided to offer HTC’s Touch Pro for those with the requisite coin, and while it’s just the same as every other CDMA Touch Pro in terms of features, you’ll be locked in for a solid three years (or eternity, same difference) if you’re lusting after the $299.99 price tag. For those unwilling to sign the dotted line on such an agreement, you can pay $549.99, $599.99 or $649.99 on a 2-, 1- and 0-year plan, respectively.

Americans may know the pictured handset by another name (psst… it’s Chocolate 3, you knew that!), but Telus Mobility customers will soon be referring to it as the LG Chocolate GiG. Available at this time on the Canadian carrier, said flip phone offers up 1GB of internal storage, an incredibly convenient 3.5-millimeter headphone jack, a spinning scroll wheel, 2-megapixel camera, 2.2-inch QVGA main display and stereo Bluetooth support. You’ll also get access to Telus mobile radio (XM) as well as Telus mobile music, Bot. of which should keep you adequately stocked with artfully imposed sine waves. It’s available at this time for the taking at $99.99 (3-year contract), $199.99 (2-year deal), $249.99 (1-year agreement) or $299.99 without any obligations.

For Telus subscribers who’ve been unbelievably envious of Americans yapping on the Rant, it’s time to kick back a cold one and relax. Telus Mobility has just introduced the renamed Samsung Slyde m540 into its lineup, and the pricing is mighty palatable if you’ve got three years to burn. Available at this time, the handset can be acquired gratis on a 3-year plan, while it’ll run you $49.99 with a 2-year agreement, $179.99 on a 1-year deal and $229.99 with no strings to speak of. at this time, if only choosing between grey and pink were that simple…
