Best Buy Canada Taking In-Store Pre-Orders For the XPERIA Play and Arc

If you head over to your local Best Buy store in Canada you might be intrigued with what you find. The stores across the country are now taking pre-orders for both the Sony Ericsson XPERIA Play and the XPERIA Arc. They're both priced the same: at $99.99 on a 3-year contract and $549.99 contract-free. I believe that the XPERIA Play is the better option but the choice is really up to you.

Google Nexus S Prices and Details For Telus and Rogers Leak Early

Price and release details for the Google Nexus S has just leaked from Telus and Rogers. Telus (above) looks like they'll be releasing the smartphone tomorrow for $179.99 on a 3-year contract and $549.99 contract-free. This one should be available tomorrow along with its 4-inch display, NFC, a 1GHz CPU, and Android "Gingerbread".

Surprisingly, it looks like Rogers could have the smartphone at a reasonable price: $99.99 on a 3-year contract and $499.99 contract-free. Of course, the 3-year contract price is a promo price so it'll shoot up in a few days / weeks so you better pick one up as soon as you can. I'm guessing it'll be available on a bunch of carriers tomorrow, April 7th.
