Nokia launched its first Windows Phone devices in multiple regions, but North American consumers have been left out for the moment. However, this is about to change as the Finnish company announced late last year that the Nokia Lumia 710 will hit stores at T-Mobile USA on January 11.

 

Furthermore, Nokia fans living in United States will also be able to grab the unannounced Lumia 900, also known as Nokia Ace, which is expected to arrive in stores on March 18 via AT&T.

 

However, this piece of information has yet to be confirmed next week when Lumia 900 will be officially introduced at 2012 Consumers Electronics Show, in Las Vegas.

 

In the same news, the folks over at MobileSyrup were able to confirm that the first Nokia Windows Phone device to be launched in Canada was the Lumia 710.

 

Although there are no details on the smartphone’s exact release date, rumor has it that the device might be announced within the next few weeks.

 

Furthermore, MobileSyrup also claims that the second Nokia Windows Phone device to hit shelves in Canada will be the Nokia Ace (Nokia Lumia 900).

 

The information seems to be valid given the fact that Nokia follows the same pattern when it comes to releasing its products in North America.

 

It’s still unclear which carrier will launch the Nokia Lumia 710 in Canada. Nokia Ace will probably be introduced by Rogers, Bell or TELUS as the smartphone will be delivered with LTE support.

 

Concerning the price tag of the Lumia 710, the smartphone should be available for around $50 (40 EUR) with a new three-year agreement or for a suggested retail price of $375 (290 EUR).

 

No clue on whether or not the Nokia Ace will be exclusively available through a certain carrier for a brief period, or the Finnish company will choose to release the smartphone via multiple major operators in the country.
