Koodo leading Telus’ charge into HSPA territory?

Filed under: , , ,

It’s no secret that Telus is kicking off a transition from CDMA to UMTS / HSPA starting later this year, but who would’ve thought its Koodo Mobile value-oriented brand would be on the front lines? Howard Chui notes that Koodo’s phone activation page now shows a SIM card on its diagram of where to find your ESN (or IMEI, in this case) — a pretty strong indication that GSM-enabled Koodo phones are just around the corner. Of course, that leaves open the question of what hardware will be involved, but something tells us Koodo won’t be getting that killer LG BL40 its corporate parent has long been rumored to have in the pipe.
