| | Will AT&T be getting the new BLACKBERRY BOLD?
It seems that the only company in the US I hear about the bold is Verizon and I want to know if you all will get it as well

AT&T's press quote stated later this year they will have the 9860 and 9900. Wireless Giant pegs a date of Nov. 20. Other rumors say between September and November.

You shouldn't switch carriers just for a phone...

I have a 9800, and the 9810 is not an upgrade, the hardware issues will persist. I have been waiting with many other Crackberryans for this phone, since the 9000. AT&T made a lot of money from the 9000, and I think it is crap to keep the people who want to go back to that style waiting. I am a long standing customer of AT&T, but they currently have no other phones I am interested in, and will not hesitate to switch to Verizon for this phone. My 9800 is on its last leg because that form factor has not held up for me, the 9900 will. Many have defended AT&T for the decision to old off on this phone, but I think it is a terrible decision.

Just my personal opinion, you do what you want.

well i just got the 9810 and honestly when i firtst saw it in the store and talking to the reps, they said dont get it, but i went ahead and got it, because of one thing, i could change the platform to see a glimpse of the the coming bold's platform, but one i did change it, the 9810 was moving like the wind...smooth...everything that it shouldve been when it first came out...i hate waiting as well,but as long as at&t gets the device...i'll hold on or get it unlocked and work with it that way...but never worth switching to verizon...i like my gsm and the ability to multitask ...something that a cdma cannot do.

Roadmap states either Nov 6th or Nov 20th. One of those Sundays. Be a pretty nice bday present for me since mine is the 9th.

I have waited so long it feels. It has been very disappointing to know AT&T could have released this phone a lot sooner. I think I will just wait till the next one comes out and continue to hang on to my Torch 9800 for now.
