Leaked: Telus Launching The BlackBerry Torch 9810 & 9860 On August 15

Last month we found out that Telus would be launching a few new BlackBerry 7 smartphones in August and soon after that they’d be launching a total of six before October 1st. Even though RIM confirmed them as one of the carriers to offer the new devices, Telus still hasn’t made it official with their own announcement. Thanks to a new leak courtesy of MobileSyrup, we now know that Telus plans to launch the BlackBerry Torch 9810 and Torch 9860 around August 15th.

Check out a few (bigger) images of the leaked info below  showing the launch dates for each device.
