Good news for our brothers to the North. Samsung Mobile Canada sent out a tweet today, announcing the availability of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus on Rogers and Telus. According to the less than 180 characters announcement, both Rogers and Telus will be carrying the Galaxy Nexus starting January 13th. That’s just one week away, and I’m sure one week too long for many.

Well what do we have here? It appears an online ad has gone out a bit prematurely (now yanked), and by the looks of it, has let the cat out of the bag regarding a possible Sprint version of the Galaxy Nexus. That’s right, your eyes do not deceive you. It looks like Sprint will be getting the Galaxy Nexus, and I’d bet it’s safe to say, it will be coming soon. The ad, which was spotted over on CNET, features what may have been Sprints biggest announcement of the year.

Great news for AT&T customers hoping to take advantage of AT&T’s blazing LTE speeds. AT&T has announced that it has flipped the switch on 11 new markets, bringing the total number of markets now enjoying 4G LTE to 26. While they have a lot of legwork to catch up to Verizon’s 119 cities covered, it’s still great news for current AT&T customers using, or considering buying, a 4G LTE device. So exactly which 11 cities are we seeing the newfound speeds in?

I have some good news for all you Verizon customers who were as upset as I was over the whole “convenience” fee fiasco. Verizon has decided to jump ship on the whole “convenience” fee idea after receiving immense backlash from customers as well as oodles of bad press (probably the bad press that did it). At one point it even looked as if the FCC was going to get involved, and for good reason: Verizon was simply trying to nickel and dime its customers. It’s not often we get to score one for the good guys, and this news has certainly put a smile on my face. Kudos to everyone who voiced their opinions, eventually forcing Verizon to release the following statement:

After a long day of 4G LTE outage, Verizon has finally broken its silence about the issue by informing us via Twitter that the issues are resolved. In classic nonchalant Verizon fashion, they go on to claim 3G was not affected (tell that to the thousands who could not connect). There was no apology or link on who to talk to about a possible credit, but did I really expect one — no.
