According to an unknown source (so this is not 100% confirmed), ...

Among the new ones are Walmart, Blueshop, Staples and PC-Canada, though the last one currently lists the device as out of stock (or on ”back order”, as someone put it in another article.

BB KEYone being out in the United States is nothing new. What is new is the fact that now you can just go to a store and buy one, instead of ordering it online. The only catch is that the store has to be a Sprint one. Not sure if you want to buy a BlackBerry KEYone? Take a look at the phone's specification, maybe it will help you make up your mind: - ...
Canadians seem to have jumped the carrier-free like KEYone like... like something someone likes very much, because it has only been a few days since they became available at Canadian Walmarts and stores are already out.
