Any ideas if and when this will happen?
sometime 2009
Has it been confirmed that Verizon is getting the Bold?
isn't verizon getting the thunder? I would think but not sure that the Bold would come in late 2009 doesn't everything happen like a year later for verizon and telus?
Not 100% confirmed by Verizon but I read a article that they will carry it. If I can find it, I will post the link.
Here is the link. Just do not count on the release date for Verizon to be correct. With At&t having a delay on the release of the BOLD, it will push back other carriers as At&t it getting a certain period of time for exclusive rights.
RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 (AT&T) vs. RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 (T-Mobile) vs. RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 (Verizon Wireless) - infoSync Reviews
If only ATT would spend as much money and effort improving their network coverage as they do obtaining exclusive rights to the latest and greatest gear.
I'd rather have last year's gear that works, then this year's gear that doesn't.
It appears the Bold delay is for much the same problem as the 3G iPhone - it's only been out a month and a half and there's already been a class action suit filed. People aren't happy.
To be fair, the iPhone problems isn't all AT&T's fault. AT&T likes to test their devices before they go on sale. Apple didn't let AT&T get its devices testers to check out how the 3G iPhone works on the network. They did some limited testing and hoped that the code would work its magic. Had Apple done the same thing RIM is doing, we would't have seen the iPhone until September rather than July.
If its being speculated to arrive in januarat of 09 I would guess that it woupld be here either may or summer of 09

That class action suit against Apple is exactly what they deserve. I hate apple anyway. But, I thought vzw was getting the thunder, not the bold?

From what I read Vz is definetly releasing the Thunder/Storm and a great possiblity of the Bold. I would'nt go as far as saying Summer 09 but around March-May time frame its should drop. Exclusive only last for so long and Vz is not stupid to let this go till summer '09.. They would have to get the Bold at sometime or they would lose customers to the competition.
P.S. My 2 years is up in April '09 they better get crackin ;) lol
My one year will be in may of 09 so its perfect. May be a Lil pricier than the 2 year upgrade but I may consider it lol
