Best Buy has just confirmed that a couple of carriers in Canada will be launching the BlackBerry Bold 9780 for $149.99 on a 3-year contract sometime in the near future. The carriers listed are Bell, Virgin Mobile, and Rogers - Telus is no where to be seen so that price tag is still unknown at this point. Hopefully, it's even a little bit cheaper since they are getting the Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate soon. Getting back on track, the Bold 9780's contract-free price is said to be $599.99, but that's unconfirmed right now.

AT&T will be releasing the Samsung Solstice II in the future and Mobile Burn has pointed out that it'll be priced at $29.99 on a 2-year contract. The Solstice II will feature a 3-inch touchscreen display with a 240 x 400 resolution, a 2MP camera, GPS support, Bluetooth 2.1, AT&T Navigator, and a microSD card slot. This is pretty good dumbphone to add to their line-up but I think that you're better off with a budget Android phone.

Update: According to Unwired View, the Samsung Solstice has the model number a817 and will be available starting on November 7th.
