I don't know where your getting your information from but Bell and Telus are far from being partners. They are no where close to sharing the same network. I live in Ottawa and have used all the major carriers here from Rogers to Telus and currently on Bell and believe me there is a big difference. Bell built it's network from scratch long before Telus ever had a presence in Ontario. When Telus did enter the market here, they did so by acquiring what was Clearnet that had built the Mike (push to talk) type network. Here you can easily tell which cell towers belong to Telus as they are the only towers that have a flashing white light (all other towers, both Bell and Rogers have a red light). Bell and Telus are not merging their networks at all, however they are both converting from traditional CDMA to the new global standard, they have to but share...I doubt that very much. Bell does NOT play well with others, trust me.

Bell and Telus are only partners on the HSPA project, nothing more. They still hate each other ;)

Bell put all their eggs in the palm pre basket this year. They need to sell a butt load of those phones to get their money back.

The CEO said it was the single most important launch the company had ever done...
