Virgin Mobile Canada To Launch the BlackBerry Bold 9780 On Nov. 9th, Galaxy S On the 15th

A tipster from Boy Genius has just mentioned that Virgin Mobile in Canada is just about ready to launch the BlackBerry Bold 9780, the LG Flick, and Samsung Galaxy 550 (aka the i5500), and the Galaxy S. The two smartphones that are the most interesting on this is, of course, the Bold 9780, which will apparently launch on November 9th (next week), and the Galaxy S, which will be launching on November 15th. Right now we don't know which model of the Galaxy S they'll be getting but you should already know the spec sheet by now since most of the Galaxy S's sport [more or less] the exact same ones. Bell owns Virgin Mobile and they managed to get the European Galaxy S which has a front-facing camera; maybe they'll be getting the same one.

Virgin Mobile's Q4 Devices Gets Priced and Dated

Last week a Q4 roadmap leaked regarding Virgin Mobile and Mobile Syrup has confirmed that the roadmap was true. What you see above tells you everything that you need to know regarding the launch date. First off, the BlackBerry Torch is already available on Virgin so that's out of the way. On October 21st, the carrier will be releasing the LG Sway and the BlackBerry Bold 9780. The Sway will be available for free on a 3-year SuperTab contract, while the price for the 9780 is still unknown. On November 9th, the carrier will release the LG Flick, while the Samsung Galaxy 5 (i5500) will be available on November 12th. Both of these handsets will be available for free on the SuperTab contract. Clearly, you can expect them all soon but none of them are high-end so it's not really a big deal.

Virgin Mobile's (in Canada) Q4 Roadmap Leaks Out; BB Torch, Bold 9780, and Others On the Way

Well, the entire Q4 roadmap for Virgin Mobile in Canada has just leaked out and sadly there isn't anything too exciting coming up for the carrier. There's the Galaxy 5 (i5500) that we heard about yesterday along with the BB Torch and the Bold 9780. The Bold 9780 should be hitting the carrier on October 21st.

On the messaging spectrum there's the Gravity 3 which sports a slide-out QWERTY keyboard; they already have the Gravity 3 so they're just launching a new colour yellow / black. The last two handsets are the LG Sway and the Flick, which are set to be basic voice phones. They sport a 2-inch display with a 1.3MP camera and a 2.4-inch display with a 2MP camera, respectively, and they'll both be available for free on a 3-year SuperTab contract.
