Almost bought a Blackberry Bold

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I would’ve, if it was 187 quid on Vodafone.

But I seriously doubt it.

That’ll only be for new customers/contracts:

It’s 600 quid on Expansys, to buy unlocked. I’m going to wait until 3 get their arse in gear and get it with them, I think…

I've had pretty much the same dilemma. Any idea when 3 will be getting it?

Ewan

They are ALWAYS the last in the UK it seems. ASDA get devices quicker than
3 do...

Asda? ;-)

Do you guys know which operators will flog the Bold?

BTW Ewan... how about a mano a mano between the Bold and the Iphone (and the xperia but I don't want to push my luck)

Yes, please, I'd love to get a MIR verdict on the Bold v iPhone debate

Ben Smith

Definitely Three, O2, Voda and Orange.

Ewan

T-Mob 'ave'em.

£600? Hmmm CPW is offering it for about half that SIM free if their catalogue is correct. I'll check in store tomorrow.

Any dates announced?

Ben Smith

It's in stores on Orange now.

£369.99 for a sim free bold in Carphone, I bought 1 a few days ago and have been using T-Mobile and Vodafone with no problems at all.

Its a VERY NICE phone (im using as my modem for my small advent 4211 to type this).

Pictures, Dan! Pictures!

I went to my local Rogers store looking for a Bold, but went with an iPhone instead. $400 vs. $200 made it an easy decision. But having said that, the 3G iPhone is pretty disappointing (specifically the awful battery life).

I've thrown my net out for a Bold. We'll see what comes back...
