AT&T’s San Franscisco launch party for the Bold

By James on Oct 22, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, RIM, USA.

RIM and AT&T held a BlackBerry launch event in San Francisco last night. Looks like they actually had AT&T branded BlackBerry Bold’s on hand to giveaway there last night! If you saw last week the held a party in New York and didn’t give any Bold’s out just coupons for a free one. Now don’t get me wrong a free Bold is great but it would have been better if they got it that night. Anyways the folks over at BBNews got a hold of some party shots. Read More

Latest word on AT&T’s Bold release date

By James on Oct 17, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Bold 9000 Series, USA.

As you may have read AT&T held a launch party in New York City the other night and basically didn’t have any Bold’s on hand to actually give out. Instead they gave everyone a I.O.U card to get a Bold at a later date. Anyways Boy Genius seems to have obtained an email stating the latest release date for RIM’s new 3G BlackBerry Bold 9000. It seems the Bold should arrive on October 27th and that the pricing is still unknown.

Apparently the issue that was holding the Bold back from releasing on AT&T has been fixed up and its all good to go! Stay tuned.

If you want a little tease to hold you over check out over gallery for the BlackBerry Bold >>

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).

AT&T: Why iPhone is better than Storm

By James on Sep 24, 2008 in AT&T (Cingular), BlackBerry, Other Devices, Rumors, Storm 9500 Series, USA, Verizon.

AT&T must be feeling a little heat from Verizon’s announcement of the first touch screen BlackBerry “Storm”. AT&T has released an internal document that outlines what the iPhone does that the Storm doesn’t. Here’s why they say the iPhone is so much better than the Storm:

- The iPhone uses multi-touch technology / Storm uses haptic feedback technology
- iPhone was Wi-Fi / Storm doesn’t
- iPhone has an app store / Storm doesn’t (maybe coming soon?)
- iPhone syncs with iTunes / Storm will be able too but not as well?
- iPhone users Safari for browsing / Storm uses RIM’s browser
- iPhone is GSM/3G / Storm is CDMA/GSM/Dual band HSDPA

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…
