Yesterday was the day that RIM launched its new smartphone called the BlackBerry Torch aka Slider 9800, we have already mentioned that AT&T will be releasing this handset August 12 and given you its price also.

Well thanks to Engadget who found information via Globe and Mail the BlackBerry Torch 9800 will makes its way to Telus, Bell and Rogers.

So if all of those that thought the BB Torch was going to be a Rogers exclusive think again, we have no idea when Telus and Bell will be releasing the phone but we do know its coming soon.

If you visit Rogers website ‘Red Board’ they say that the Torch will launch within the coming weeks, so the 3 named carriers above will be launching the BlackBerry Torch so all we got to do is sit back and wait for release dates and price.

In the meantime you will have to make do with AT&T release dates and price for now, please do let us know what you think of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 so far, whilst we wait for more information please do watch the hands-on video.
