AT&T BlackBerry Bold press release: confirms October launch, announcement soon

It will be available on Tuesday, Oct 02. My wild guess for the XXXXday, Oct XX.

I’ve been waiting this phone since forever.

Oct. 2 is a Thursday. Does AT&T do launches on certain days? I would love for it to come out asap and not have to wait till mid-end of Oct. if it is a Tuesday it would be on the 7th, 14th, 21st or 28th.

This is BULL! Middle of summer was when i heard it came out soon! End of august i heard itll finally be here! September– NEGATIVE.
End of october? fucking bullshit

you have 30 days to return the phone to Apple. I just returned mine. Applications kept freezing.

So…I really hope it comes out soon! I’ve been waiting for months now & it seems like it will never come out.
I’m super excited.
Although it has gotten some bad reviews at times, I know it will sell.
Its time for a change — after using my BB Pearl for years now!
COME ON OCTOBER! Early Oct.

My ATT rep told me it would be released in early October (they told me that in July!) Sounds to me like it’s right on time?!?!

Any updates with the bold boy genius?Will the release push thru on Oct 2nd?

WTF Everytime i look up releases it a month in delay will i went to att n dey said at da end of this year wtf wats wit shit

I went to an AT&T store in Atlanta and spoke to the manager yesterday and she told me the Bold will be available for purchase on Oct. 21.

My AT&T store told me yesterday that it’s MID -LATE NOVEMEBER NOW!!!! UGH

I travel extensively throughout the Southeast. AT&T’s network has provided EXCELLENT service.
I haven’t spent time with anyone using another carrier’s network that had more coverage. I have used a couple of blackberry devices. Currently using the 8310. Awesome phone, just needs 3G..TELENAV on the blackberry is better than any GPS device for auto use… I have a garmin in the truck & prefer AT&T’s TELENAV on the blackberry. Blackberry’s are extremely durable phones. I have never damaged one, but have dropped them many times. The blackberry provides excellent service / coverage when I am in an edge network area. I tried the blackjackII.. Nice phone, best option is that it’s 3G. I am carrying the 3G iphone with the blackberry right now. iphone is an excellent device. More bells & whistles that I need. It’s a cool gadget.
The ultimate phone (for me) will be the blackberry bold. It can’t get here fast enough. I appreciate everyone’s comments.

does any body know if they will be making a touch version to keep up with the storm wonder why they didn’t do this .

will ther be a touch version of the bold to keep up with the verizon storm the I phone is just not what it’s hyped up to be .

Will the blackberry bold be equipped with the functionality to access FULL YouTube? Just like an iPhone?

October 21st is here, no Bold. I was also told mid November by my ATT friend. Who knows, he didn’t for sure.

I spoke with AT&T yesterday and they said not til next year. Specifically because they want RIM to tweak the phone for longer battery life, they say it isn’t up to par for AT&T. At least that’s what they told me.
