RIM says AT&T’s Bold still in testing…

By James on Oct 04, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, USA.

A post popped up yesterday quoting RIM co-CEO Mike Lazaridis saying that AT&T is still internally testing their 3G BlackBerry Bold 9000 and that it should be ready later this year. Orginally the BlackBerry Bold was suppose to launch on AT&T back in May, however may delays due to issues with signal and battery delayed it. The Bold has made apparences all around the world including now in Canada.

“There’s great scrutiny, as you might know, on that network and a certain device. So I guess everyone wants to be sure on every last test,” said RIM’s co-CEO. So with any luck you guys in the United States should be able to pick up a Bold for at least Christmas (hopefully before).

Telus getting CDMA BlackBerry Bold?!?

By James on Oct 01, 2008 in BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Canada, RIM, Rumors, Telus.

Take this one with a grain of salt! But a rumor is floating around that Telus will be getting a CDMA BlackBerry Bold by the end of this year. Usually the folks at MobileSyrup are on point when they report this kind of stuff, however at this time we do not believe that RIM has any plans for a CDMA Bold this year. Maybe next year. Maybe not at all. At this time the only BlackBerry that Telus should be getting this year will be RIM’s first touch screen smartphone the BlackBerry Storm 9530.

Anyways its just a little rumor that was posted online and we thought we would share it with you…

Thanks Adam!

Rogers BlackBerry Bold drops to $299!

By James on Oct 01, 2008 in BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Canada, Rogers.
<br />

The BlackBerry Bold isn’t out in the United States yet, however Rogers Wireless has dropped their Bold price by $100 dollars today making it $299.99 with three year contract. Apparently Rogers hasn’t been selling nearly as many Bold’s as they would like to be (I wonder why?) so with this little price drop maybe it will help? Is it required you have a $45 combo of voice and data. The price hasn’t been updated on Rogers.com just yet but it should happen later today.

Check out Rogers.com for more details… >>

By James on Sep 29, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Rumors, USA.

Just when you thought you would never see it. It seems that Best Buy may have leaked a release date for AT&T’s BlackBerry Bold. Apparently in Best Buy’s inventory system is that Bold listed as stock available on October 26th which would point to a more solid release date… So any luck at all you should be able to pick up your shinny new Bold the week of October 20th!

AT&T’s BlackBerry Bold delayed until November?

By James on Sep 18, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, Rumors, USA.

Honestly I really hope not, but the latest report in from a leaked AT&T document shows the BlackBerry Bold ETA is November now. Other news from AT&T on this report shows the new dark blue Curve 8320 will be launching on October 21st, Pink Pearl launches October 2nd, and the Burnt Orange model has be delayed until 2009.

I should point out as well that Boy Genius clearly says he is sticking firm to the October 2nd release date. So Keep checking back for the latest BlackBerry Bold in the United States updates…

Colorware meets the BlackBerry Bold

By James on Sep 01, 2008 in Accessories, BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series.
<br />

Right after we showed you the red colored BlackBerry Bold we we’re told that Colorware PC is now doing custom BlackBerry Bold 9000’s. At first we didn’t think custom BlackBerry Bold colors we’re such a great idea but after checking out some of the options (such as our BBSync colors) it might just be a good idea! Pricing is $159 USD to send your own Bold in, unfortunantly the rapid return service isn’t available. Check out ColorWarePC.com for more details.
