Best Buy flyer shows off Telus' BlackBerry Tour and HTC Touch Pro2 and Snap

In the middle of last month, we reported that Canadian carrier Telus was going to launch their version of the BlackBerry Tour 9630 on July 15th. With less than two weeks until that happens, the handset was one of three Telus' devices highlighted on a flyer distributed by Best Buy. Also "Coming Soon", as the headline says above the phones, Telus' version of two HTC models, the Touch Pro and the Snap.

Leaked Telus info sheets give a promotion price of $249.99 for the Tour with the customary Canadian 3 year contract. Minus the promotion, the 3 year price is expected to be $449.99. Mobile Syrup is saying that they were informed that the Touch Pro2 will go for $549.99 and the Snap will cost $100 less.

The info in the flyer is good until July 30th. The Tour will have been out for about two weeks by that point, and perhaps the two HTC handsets will also be in the hands of Telus customers by the end of this month.
