Also remember some carriers even discontinued the 9000 until issues were fixed. So let's not be so quick to bash AT&T.
That said, when you have an exclusive in the states as a company it would be foolish not to capitalize on it don't you think? I understand we're all gadget geeks & want the latest and greatest, but they're out to make money. It only makes sense the 9810 is launching first IMHO.
AT&T also has many more subscribers than Rogers, Telus or Bell so there's a reason why they would want to thoroughly test the 9900. The rest is up to marketing... :/
