TELUS Samsung Galaxy Apollo Android Smartphone Coming Soon

According to Best Buy Mobile, the Samsung Galaxy Apollo Android smartphone is to be released by TELUS (screenshot below). Pricing is apparently to be determined, as the cheapest version of the phone is listed as $299.99  - though we expect a 3-year contract price to be lower than $300 judging by past Samsung Galaxy phones.

The Galaxy Apollo features a large, 3.2" touchscreen, built-in Wi-Fi and A-GPS, a 3.0 MP camera, media player, FM radio and virtual QWERTY keypad. The external memory is expandable up to 32 GB via microSD, and the talk and standby time are exceptional by cell standards, providing up to 9 hours of talk time and up to 24 days of standby. The phone will operate on TELUS' 3G+ network, and will run on the Android 2.1 Éclair OS.
