And here we thought Best Buy was the only retail culprit always stealing Rogers’ thunder in terms of device confirmations. As it turns out, Rogers own affiliate retail stores do a pretty bang-up job letting the cat out of the bag on their own. Despite not having confirmed pricing or release date, what you are looking at above is still pretty obvious: an information page for the BlackBerry 9810, thus confirming that the as-of-yet unconfirmed phone from RIM is indeed landing with Rogers sometime in the near future. All things being equal, one can safely assume that the aforementioned device will also land with the other “Faux G” carriers as well - again, it’s just a matter of final confirmation.

What I love most about this is that Rogers is able to confirm plans to carry a device - one that has been heavily leaked, circulated, reviewed, used, sold, dissected, etc - that RIM has yet to even officially acknowledge.

More to follow.
