It looks like Telus is going to be the latest to carry the Samsung m540. We know this phone here in the US as the Samsung Rant, but in Canada it will be known as the Slyde. The Samsung m540 will not only be under a different name and include different branding but will also come in Black and Pink.

Best buy is currently saying the Slyde is called the TAAG, not sure where they got that from. This slick messaging phone has a 2.1-inch screen, 2-megapixle camera and a slide out keyboard for quick text messaging and email. The Samsung Slyde also has built in GPS for tracking your location. Telus will be selling this phone for CA$229.99 with a 3 year agreement. It looks like purchasing this phone directly from the carrier is your best bet. Best Buy is charging between $20-$30 more than Telus without any rebates.
