The Sony Xperia Ion continues to find a home for itself in North America with Rogers launching the device today for Canadian consumers. The Ion, which is available in the US from AT&T, is priced as low as $49.99 on a three-year contract and can be purchased outright for $549.99. The phone might take a back seat to devices like the Samsung Galaxy S3 and HTC One X, but for the price you still get a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 4.6-inch HD display, 12MP camera, and LTE connectivity. The phone ships with Android 2.3 but an upgrade pathway to Ice Cream Sandwich is already in place.

Great phone and will be much better when ICS or Jelly Bean reaches it.
