| |  Bad news on AT&T release
First off folks don't shoot the messenger. I am mearly passing along information that I have learned as a device tester of the Bold for AT&T.
Due to some lingering problems, software, roaming, etc the Bold is being pushed back to Halloween time frame. I realize this will anger and disappoint many of you but as I said I am mearly passing along what I have learned...

October? From a June release...or ok, a july release...to October?! Ugh, this is unbelievable. Rim can't be too happy with the issues at&t is having. All these other carriers are releasing the phone but due to some reason(s) with at&t's network (which i guess is more complex?) the phone is being pushed off until Halloween? Ordering my Curve in the next ten minutes, i'm done waiting.  |

Phonegeek,
I'm considering buying an unlocked phone and using it on att. Can you tell me as a tester if you personally are having these problems?

Thanks PG. You know no matter what the news CB is just glad to have the "CORRECT" news in regards to this device. Hey, check with your superiors, becuase RIM is supposed to release the Final OS today. Thanks for keeping CB up to date.
To the poster above, anything that will run on Rogers will run on AT&T. But thats not to say you won't encounter problems that PG has spoken of.

RIM says that they will unlock the pins once the device is released in the States (AT&T). I don't know how true this is, but I would call RIM and ask them this before paying money for a Rogers unlocked Bold.

I heard that RIM is locking pins too. Still dunno how much truth there is to that. I guess you'll know when you try.
