Now that the Nexus S has been announced to our friends in the south, when can we expect to get some Samsung Nexus S goodness here in Canada?
My bet would be when a GSM version is released. The upcoming T-Mobile nexus s would be compatible with Wind Mobile’s network on 3G (AWS bands), or, if you can handle it, Rogers with Edge-only data connectivity. Roger’s edge network is terribly slow, I lived with a T-Mobile nexus one on Rogers for 5 months and eventually got fed up with it and purchased a at&t nexus one off eBay. Never again will I use a phone that’s incompatible with my cell provider’s 3G network.
It would be great to see a carrier here in Canada pick up a pure google supported device, as us Canadians still have not had a pure android experience phone yet (The HTC Dream was close, but it was still supported by HTC).
Wind Mobile, would you like to take the plunge?
