Galaxy Nexus coming to Virgin Mobile and Bell, hits Canada early December

Time to rejoice people! The Galaxy Nexus has been the talk of the town lately and the question on everyone’s mind is “when can I get my hands on that delicious Ice Cream Sandwich?” Well my friends, early December is when, and so far Bell and Virgin Mobile is where. Virgin Mobile (a subsidiary of Bell) and now Bell have both announced that the first Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) powered device will be hitting Canada in early December and that pre-registration is open starting today over at Virgin Mobile, you can also sign up for more information over at Bell. Virgin Mobile and Bell are the first Canada carriers to officially announce they will be launching the Galaxy Nexus but still no word on pricing has been revealed.
Your turn Rogers.
As I mentioned no pricing has been confirmed but, Google currently has a contest on right now where 10 Galaxy Nexus’s are up for grabs and they state the retail value is $500 USD.
