So it looks like LG is releasing an new phone in their chocolate line. The new LG Chocolate BL40 looks to be pretty slick. Not too much is known about the phone right now or even if it will be a tri-band or quad-band GSM phone.
What is known is that the phone will be 21:9 aspect ratio for display. This means it will be even wider then a wide screen which is 16:9 and it will have a tempered glass screen making it screen resistant. Other features include:
- Multi-touch input
- Active Flash UI
- Virtual QWERTY keyboard
- HSDPA 7.2 Mbps
- Wi-Fi
- A-GPS
Unfortunately there was a promo video that was leaked but it has been removed from YouTube since then. LG will likely announce the complete specs for the Chocolate BL40 in the coming months for now we just have this image to tease you with

Alright so as the title mentions this is simply a rumor but according to sources at BoyGeniusReport.com Telus will be getting the iPhone in October. This wil be just in time for the launching of their new HSDPA network that they wanted to have in place before the olympics.
If this rumors proves to be true it will a huge boost to the launch for Telus and definitely be competition for Rogers and Fido. This will make 3 out of the 4 providers in Canada carrying the Apple iPhone 3Gs.
For now we will just have to wait patiently wait and see what happens with this.

So thanks to our friends over at BoyGeniusReport it looks like Rogers Communications will be launching the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1a in June. This means that everyone will finally be able to use the HSPA functions.
We at PureMobile get calls every day about the X1a. Sony Style in the US has had it on their site since the Sony Xperia X1 came out last year but so far no one has been lucky enough to actually get their hands on one. Well at least now the wait is soon to be over and that means we will have the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1a unlocked as soon as we can.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1a will have all the goodies of the X1, slide out keyboard, Wi-Fi, and best of all 3G. This will allow for high speed downloads on your phone rather then using the slower Edge network.
Well the good news is the rumor is that the phone will be widely available on Rogers on June 30 but they will have some available as early as June 9 so hopefully we at PureMobile will get our hands on them as soon as possible for our loyal customers
