More QWERTY Windows Phone 7 handsets headed to Canada (Dell Venue Pro? HTC 7 Pro?)
While announcing the availability of the Samsung Focus in Canada, Rogers has also unveiled some details about upcoming WP7 devices for the Canadian market.
According Microsoft’s Mike O’Sullivan (interviewed here by someone at Rogers), new Windows Phone 7 device with hardware QWERTY keyboards are coming “in the future”.
At the moment, the only Windows Phone 7 handset with a hardware keyboard that’s available in Canada is the LG Optimus Quantum (offered by Bell for 99.95 on a 3-yr contract).
Two of the upcoming QWERTY smartphones might be the Dell Venue Pro and the HTC 7 Pro (pictured above), both off which are yet to be launched in the US and Europe. Of course, completely new QWERTY WP7 devices could – and probably will – also be available in Canada soon. More details as we get them.
