Rogers’ Android users must be over the moon today; less than 12 hours after the Magic+ update was announced, Rogers has confirmed via their @RogersBuzz twitter handle that the 2.1 update for the Spica is available for download as well. Two Android devices updated in one day…someone must have received a raise recently. Ironically, this [...]

If you are one of the few who hopped the Android bandwagon with Rogers early, luck is finally on your side.

There’s been a ton of news this week on the Torch 9800 releasing on various carriers, but lets not forget about the Style 9670 and Bold 9780 which seem to be trailing closely behind. Click on down to see what else you may have missed this week in BlackBerry and continue to enjoy your Labor [...]

The device in all its BlackBerry 6-running, 3G-powered, WebKit browser-using, capacitive touchscreen/QWERTY glory, is set to launch on Friday September 24th, at a very reasonable $199.99 on a 3 year term.

Anyone who knows mobile in Canada knows that Rogers and Nokia have always had a good relationship, despite lack-luster sales. Today, Rogers quietly launched another hand-set to the non-smartphone market with the Nokia 6700; a device packed with all the features you could ever need without the extra data cost. It comes loaded with Nokia’s [...]

Remember not long ago when we reported that Rogers had launched prepaid BlackBerry data, a first of its kind for Canada? Well, it seems as though they are following up on this promo by introducing the soon to be discontinued Curve 8520 on prepaid. Pricing is a bit high at $349.99, but comes with the standard [...]
