As you may (or may not) know, Samsung has created a few variations of the Galaxy S mainly for the US Carriers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile & Verizon), although if the news coming from Smarthouse is correct, we may see a different Galaxy S variation hitting Telstra when it announces the device in the near future. Our guess is that they may use the Samsung Captivate (see pic) which is used on AT&T and supports the NextG frequency of 850MHz 3G.
In addition to this, Smarthouse are reporting that Telstra are hoping to launch their Galaxy S with Android 2.2, which is expected to become available from Samsung during September. So if you’re after the Telstra Galaxy S, you might be in for a bit of a wait. We’ll keep you posted.

hahaha, telstra are pathetic, still not out. Worst customer service out!
Hey I thought this was a very fascinating post thanks for writing it. You seem to be a very experienced blogger. I recently made a blog on different treatments for wealth secrets . Don’t be a stranger check out my blog tell me what you think? Thanks
i cant beleive the 3gs clone galaxy S even sold one unit. LOL
Sounds like an iPhone fan. Yeah it’s looks like iPhone 3GS. But 10 times better than iPhone 3GS. And iPhone 3G or iPhone 4 still can’t make 3G video calls.. 😉
word is the Samsung Vibrant’s works on 850Hz also
I wouldn’t believe a word smart house publish, the owner and author of all of the websites and publications is a very well know liar and copyright artist so take what ever you read from there sites and mags with a very small grain of salt. They tend to copy every other major news outlet articles (feel free to reference any article they print/write) or simply make it up! telstra will make there own announcement soon re galaxy s.
Well they were right about the Galaxy S on Optus, so I’m hoping this is the same.
Any word on whether VHA will be doing something similar?
No word yet, I suspect they’ll just use the same version as Optus, but nothing confirmed.
I’d get my hopes up, but Telstra will probably price this prohibitively expensive or on a plan with eleventy billion dollars worth of calls and 1 bit of data
I’ve been hoping all along that Telstra would end up with the AT&T version – definitely prefer it to the iPhone-clone design of the optus version
Definitely agree 😀 I hope it comes with an LED flash though >.<
i like the look but no front facing cam and the back cam is ment to be worse quality than the SGS
