Two new handsets from Canadian mobile phone maker Research In Motion are on their way to the Canadian market on the airwaves of wireless carrier TELUS, some of the latest reports around the Internet suggest.

Apparently, the newly launched BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 and the BlackBerry 9860 smartphones are those set to land at the wireless carrier in the near future.

The wireless carrier did not make an official announcement on the matter until now, but a leaked photo that just emerged into the wild comes as proof of that.

In the said image, available to the left, the BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 and the BlackBerry 9860 are shown with TELUS branding, which clearly points at an upcoming release.

The BlackBerry 9860, a smartphone long rumored to come to the market with a large touchscreen display into the mix and no physical QWERTY, has yet to be formally introduced.

The BlackBerry Bold 9900 was launched in early May during the BlackBerry World, comes with the new BlackBerry OS 7 on board, and with a touch and type design.

Bold 9900 is the first handset from RIM to sport a candybar from factor and to put together a touchscreen display and a QWERTY keyboard.

In the photo attached to this article, courtesy of CrackBerry, you can see the BlackBerry 9860 featuring the popular TELUS wallpaper, and the Bold 9900 sitting next to it.

Apparently, the photo was taken into the wild in Toronto, which means that the wireless carrier is already testing the handsets on its airwaves, and that a launch should not be too far.

No official details on the possible release of these handsets at the Canadian wireless services provider is known for the time being, but things might change in the near future, so stay tuned to learn more on the matter.
