I believe that it will launch with Rogers and come to Bell. Remember just because Bell will be HSPA soon doesn't mean it's existing customers will automatically transfer over.

Onyx is a GSM phone and so i'm fairly certain the largest gsm carrier will get first dibs.

This is a very good point that I hadn't considered. Until Telus and Bell get a sizeable number of customers on to the new network, Rogers will easily out sell Belus in HSPA devices. Therefore, Rogers is likely to get first shot at them.

It will be released on Bell as an HSPA device, same with the Nokia N97.
