The Backflip features a 3.1-inch high-resolution touchscreen display, folding QWERTY keyboard, 5-megapixel digital camera, and Motorola’s one-stop social networking platform, MotoBlur. Telus is selling the phone for $249.99 on a three-year contract or $399.99 on a month-to-month basis.
Telus’ other Android-based products include the HTC Hero and Motorola Milestone, which it launched in November and February, respectively.
