Appearently AT&T isn't the only one having problems with the Bold. . .

This makes me wonder a few things. Will Verizon run into problems with the Storm? Will AT&T put the Bold out before the end of the year? What about Rogers Wireless in Canada, who I believe already launched the Bold, I wonder if they are having any problems.

This whole Bold thing is causing doubt with RIM's reputation:

In my understanding, This is not a big issue.

Blackberry & Rim are trying to prevent some of the 3G Issues could have if they don't fix the bugs now. (Like the I-Phone Is having)

I am not a huge blackberry person, but I would much rather have a product that was corrected and released the right way, than have it quick and fast.

I believe it will be worth the wait, just think of having a top notch, 3G Blackberry. Sounds good to me.

It will be like a Blackberry Curve on Steroids.

Which should be a very, very strong release.

Sidenote-
I'm waiting for the Nokia PDA E-71 (Jan, Feb, Release through AT&T) Currently using Sony Ericsson K850, and will always have this device, it's wonderful

Ah, K850! Your a good geek! I have the N95-3.

So ? for you. What is so complicated about the Iphone 3G & BB Bold? I don't ever hear about AT&T's other 3G devices having any problems.

My N95-3 works on AT&T's 3G network, I love 3G, but it is so, so inconsistent, one minute it can be 1.8mbps, and the next it can be half that! I'm hoping AT&T ups the 3G network again soon, looking forward to leaving below 1mbps in the PAST!

That's why I love my K850...HSPDA

It says "H" In the upper left hand corner...

Very, very fast download speed & I love rockin Youtube on my mobile.

Best thing ever...I go to youtube, and listen to interviews all day long on my headphones.


N95 Is one of the greatest phones ever made...

But I love my Video Recording on The K850, home videos of the kids are priceless, they grow up so fast!

You made mention of headphones, too bad the K850 doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack.

It's a great thing that people like you and I don't let AT&T get in our way of having some of the best camera phones out there.

It really is a shame that AT&T refuses to carry high-end camera phones, they only want to carry stupid txt'g phones.

Yess sir...Too Bad,

Not just camera phones, but The N-95 & K850 are also all in one devices...

I love the many, many lil features that are packed in these phones as well...

Yea old evil Verizon and there "crappy" 3 G blackberrys have been runnin great for what almost two years now! That's sad that at&t's $hitty 3G really screws things up so bad. And when it finally comes out good luck finding a decent 3G area 🤣 I thought at&t where the innovators in this game and VZ is just the old lame duck carrier? What a f-in joke. good luck guys 😢

I get 3G ALL OVER VEGAS, even near the foothills of mountains! I heard from others that at the furthest west part of Vegas and the furthest north part of Vegas at the foothills of mountains Verizon has NO SIGNAL.

A person who has AT&T for his personal phone and Verizon for his work phone told me that.

Well that's hard to believe. Not trying to start a war here just saying I NEVER have to worry about signal with VZ and I live in the mountains of North Carolina or BFE if you will. There is no excuse for at&t having such a crappy 3G area or call area for that matter. I worked for Cingy for over three years and it was a joke the whole time, $hit when I call C.S. with VZ my call goes to S.C. not India! I just don't understand the customer numbers at&t has for all the issues that they have...oh wait I forgot a big chunk of that is PPD numbers 😲
