SaskTel Launching HSPA+ Network Mid-August

For the twelve people who care, SaskTel has announced the launch date of their 3G network as August 16th. Yes, the July 1st date has come and gone, but the network is already up and running, being tested by a select number of employees.
The new coverage will service “Regina, Saskatoon, Moose Jaw, Weyburn, Yorkton, Swift Current, Prince Albert, North Battleford and most of the connecting highways,” and should provide the entire province of Saskatchewan with 3G by the end of the calendar year.
Launch phones unfortunately won’t include the iPhone 4, but will try to make up for it with the BlackBerry Bold 9700 and Pearl 9100, among other lesser (read: Nokia) phones. The release claims that they are working to bring the new iPhone to the carrier, however, and, for the sake of the many Saskatchewans who have had to live without iPhone support, it can’t come soon enough!
