ask a Vodafone store today and only got mid August but did get to hold a dummy unit and the weight, form felt great. A manly phone.

lol. I thought the same thing, but didn't say so out loud. In case I sounded insecure or something!

I notice phones4u have changed their date to 24/08, its was 15th last time i looked, they even sent out emails saying 15th a few weeks back. That is on Vodafone though, sim free might be different

Phones4U now added to the list.

Cheers

Ordered yesterday from Handtec, so lets see if 15th August is honoured or not...

[ratchetjaw#AC]

well Clove is confirmed the 15th but not US att bands

Voda UK now have a release date of August 22nd.

Thanks for info. I'm a bit disappointed to be honest. Especially with other carriers quoting the 15th etc.

phones4u are releasing vodafone ones on 15th, vadafone themselves have nothing to do with this so they may release theirs seperatley

[Apple Inc]

Will phones4u be releasing the 9990 on orange the same time as vodafone?

Voda UK are saying that they'll launch on the 22nd, with delivery on the 23rd.

[catwoman66]

I'm sure it's been mentioned. Email from Carphone-warehouse and they state mid-August.

Are they not selling sim free ones?

[crigga84]

Are they not selling sim free ones?

Yes: BlackBerry Bold 9900 - The Carphone Warehouse

[gillybilly]

KingOfGadgets just changed there release date from early August to 12th-15th of August.

[TheMafro]

Think I'm going to go for the �36p/m 12 month �149 Vodafone contract from Carphone Warehouse. I was tempted to buy one SIM-free and go on 3's One Plan for unlimited data, but the latter is cheaper.

That's a sweet deal - how many minutes and how much data do you get for that?

That was never going to happen

[GuyH]

Well it was quite heavily talked about one here.... maybe that should have confirmed it for me ;o)

I am working in Germany next week but need to order a new work phone asap through VF. Anybody know if I can do this next week or when the earliest is I can get the order in?

Yeah, unfortunately it was only talked about by those not in the know.

Voda UK release date is 'rumoured' to be 22nd August, with pre-orders starting 9th August.
