AT&T holiday lineup revealed

Exclusive October 16, 2008

Wondering what your shopping list might look like this holiday season? One of our AT&T ninjas got his hands on an internal control document outlining new release between now and the holidays so if AT&T is your carrier of choice, here’s what Big Blue has in store for you between now and the holidays:

  • Pantech Matrix: $80 after MIR
  • Samsung Propel:$80 after MIR
  • AT&T Quickfire: $100 after MIR
  • Samsung Eternity: $150 after MIR
  • Samsung EPIX: $200 after MIR
  • LG Incite: $200 after MIR
  • HTC Fuze: $300 after MIR

Last but certainly not least, our ninja did in fact report that the Bold is on the list – with no pricing specified of course. At the very least, this may put the Bold on store shelves by the time the holiday shopping season starts, though we expect that it’ll drop sooner rather than later. Then again, as much as it has been delayed thus far AT&T may just be holding the spot without any real indication that it will be ready in time. Fingers = crossed.

    i wouldnt recommend the touch pro to many, its a nice looking phone and i got a chance to play with it yesterday…manager at my local ATT had an unbranded one and it wasnt that great. it might have something to do with my bold being the center of my gadget world right now :)
    iphone 3g is back in the box where it belongs :)

    Went in to my local AT&T store to inquire about the Bold and possible release dates today. The sales rep told me that it is a crap phone that is being recalled in every major market and has a horrible OS. When asked if it would be released this year, he said I don’t know and shrugged his shoulders. My Business rep basically gave me these same answer.

    Man when is this phone coming???? AT&T bitching about RIM and backbiting them s a bad idea. Used to be the coolest berries were released first on Cingular(at&t) then elsewhere. Now no Bold, no Storm, no Javelin (announced). no Curve II. Seems like At&T is talking themselves right out of selling Blackberrys. :(

    There was a time when at&t had the Coolest phones out there, and that’s why I am with them now. But this phone lineup for the Winter is not exciting AT ALL.

    And I am using a pantech C120, so you KNOW I want a new phone

    “HTC Fuze: $300 after MIR”

    Nevermind… I guess I won’t be getting a new phone for a while.

  • Shader

    So we have any release dates?

  • APK

    Why does HTC even bother?

    [quote]Too bad the Fuze is still has the same slow core that’s powering all of HTC’s current offerings from the Vogue/Titan, to Kaiser, Polaris, Diamond, Raphael, Experia, etc etc…

    Same cpu and lacking graphics performance.[/quote]

    Are you high? Have you even read the spec sheet? How in the world is it the same core as the Tilt? Please try and not make a fool of yourself publicly!

    wish the E71 was on that list.

    okay lets back track a second on the Bold. A few days ago when the Bold page went down temporarily I noticed a change when it reappeared, it now added the word expected into the blurb regarding when the Bold would be available…”The BlackBerry Bold 9000 is EXPECTED to be available later this year, exclusively from AT&T in the United States” (I CAPPED it so you can notice). This is like my first hand job in the 6th grade. Im miserable, tired of being semi-turned-on, and just want it to come already. Stop jerkin’ us AT&T.

  • AT&T Ninja

    I might work at a wireless carrier with three letters in its name and I might have overheard from an anonymous corporate source that the bold would be out the second week of November.

    The things that are holding it up are all OS based. The BB is the hands down best selling business oriented phone AT&T’s got so they can’t afford to give out thousands of devices that will all get returned later. It’s a huge launch on an unproven platform and they have to make sure it’s perfect.

    That being said, I am completely fired up for the Fuze whose exact release date is still up in the air but should be available by Xmas.

    AT&T Ninja dont mean to doubt you, however we have heard it many times b4

    haha i REALLY want the AT&T Quickfire but i wish it wasn’t a 1.3 megapixel camera :( .
    is there anyway that could possibly be wrong ?

    because if if it is 1.3 i might have too settle for the LC Xenon .

    any word on when that would possibly come out ??

  • Shndlyn

    Please tell me this is not a BB Bold in her hands. http://popsugar.com/2379291

  • b

    Indeed… Unlocked Rogers….

  • ben

    $300 for the htc fuze? are you freaking kidding me? i might as well go buy an iphone or G1 and save $100 bucks. That is insane. AT&T needs to get their shit together.

  • John Dow

    I work at a att store in the washington/baltimore market and we can order the phone from att in the first week of nov. and it will come available shortly after.

    John, are you talking about the Fuze. I checked out the Epix today but would really like to wait for the Fuze. Out of contract with T-Mobile and ready to sign with ATT!! Thanks.

  • Jake

    im waiting for the fuze, ive heard rumors of november 4th, anybody else hear this?

  • JP

    I was in an AT&T store today and they said they had just gotten an e-mail…the date is expected to be black friday…

  • Bc

    when is the lg xenon coming to att?

  • phone-lover

    yeah where is the Xenon?? is it coming out ??

  • phone-lover

    when does the LG Xenon come out ???

  • Joe

    AT&T also appears to be back on Cashback with Bing. Just search ‘att wireless’ on Bing, click on the Cashback link and you get 35% off your AT&T phone. I will def be taking advantage.

    Also these deals dont look accurate. Im seeing iPhone 3G S Refurbs for $49 today for Black friday, and a lot of smartphones for $0.01!
