RIM gets Bold
 

New crackberry to be offered this summer but only through ATT. How is it that Verizonwireless isn't going to have it available. Wonder what it will sell for compared to iphone?

What's up with AT&T getting all these new phones first - anybody have anything good to say about their network?

From what I gather, when the Microsoft Surface goes live next year, it will only be available from AT&T as well.

I'm thinking AT&T is shelling out a LOT of cash for these exclusive phones. Good business in my opinion, hip new phones draw the customer, then you lock them in for a few years.

It's frustrating; I'm with Sprint and would love to get these new phones, but AT&T can't touch the plan I have, (nor can any other carrier). I have the final thumb-wheel BB, an 8803e, and I'm content w/ it but would like an iphone or this new BB.

is your plan the unlimited everything?

ATT just started theirs the other month....

PS BB is only worthwhile these days if if you have BES. Otherwise if you have standard email with IMAP4 get a Windoze mobile 6 device like the Blackjack II- that blows away any BB big time.

I tossed all my BB stuff last week and couldn't be happier.

BB is so 2002...
