Re: Storm
Bold or Bust imo
Re: Storm
BOLD> already requested. i phone meets my soul mate.
Re: Storm
Wow. Sold on the bold. Not even curious boys?
Re: Storm
i'm waiting until the bold comes out before getting a long overdue new phone, but i'm definitely checking out the storm too.
Re: Storm
cant wait for the bold, but i dont really care for the storm. touch-screen phones leave me flaccid
Re: Storm
I wanted the Storm but quickly realized that this would not work while trying to use it as a business phone. Waiting for the Bold to hit Verizon but last heard it won't be until January. Anyone got any confirmation on that?
Re: Storm
they told me at least 3 months, and that was last month. so jan sounds correct.
Re: Storm
on verizon ? thought ATT had the bold exclusively

nah, att gets it first and then everyone else within 1-3 months
Re: Storm
so when does ATT get it, because that's what i'm waiting for? i've been asking kamal on msn for like the last 3 months, and he keeps giving me different dates. silly indian. :p
Re: Storm
yea rim's been pushing the date forward for the US release (rumored to be due to bug fixes), it was first gonna be Jul 25, then mid-aug, then early sept, then oct 12, now nov 12. nonsense
Re: Storm
on yahoo rim's ceo said the bold is still undergoing testing by AT&T Inc., and RIM's co-CEO implied that the carrier wants to avoid the chorus of complaints about performance that greeted the new iPhone this summer.
also someone found on bestbuy's system the bold set to be released on oct 26th. 2-3 months from that and youll have it on the others...

and how Vodafone UK is getting jacked with customer complaints about the Bold.
Re: Storm
i dont care, just get me a working model ASAP.
Re: Storm
word on the inside is that its suppose to drop and be in stores on the 27th. i have not read an official press release from the death star or RIM yet. RIM is waiting on at&t to give the green light to drop, firmware issues from what i understand. was actually at a bold release party last week and played with a bold for about 30 minutes, overly impressed to say the least. watched bits & peices of the dark knight on it. resolution of screen rivals that of of your highest end lcd's; it has the highest resolution of any cell phone ever produced, not to mention 1gig of on board, plus 4 gig compatibility for sd as well as 3g goodness for simultaneous voice & data. getting arroused thinking about it.
Re: Storm
you forget about having the most powerful processor to ever make into a cell phone...... 625 mhz with mmx
in 1999, I bought a micron PC which was the most exp PC at the time.... 325 Mhz PII with MMX. And that was a desktop.... almost 10 years later and they crammed twice the power into a phone which is the size of the original CPU itself....
gotta love technology
Re: Storm
Woo technology! :CandyPop:
Re: Storm
just heard from very reliable source inside that it will be released on the 4th of November. keeping fingers crossed tho, heard this shit before.
Re: Storm
i work for at&t, and ur source is right. nov. 4th is the final release date for the bold. price will be around $299

Re: Storm
It reminds me of the MotoQ9h and in a good way. I thought that phone was fantastic but switched phones to go with a much better provider. I'm glad I am finally away from AT&T and their shitty service. Will look forward to the bold come January though.

Re: Storm
well, maybe i'm not getting a Bold. no phone is worth $680.
Re: Storm
especially when after a couple of months, after the holidays, it will be about $200.00
Re: Storm
thats for an unlocked piece..... it'll be $299 with a 2 year contract through ATT
Re: Storm
after contemplating a lot.
im forgoing the bold, waiting for storm.
Re: Storm
What the fuck?! $680? Really? I mean it's a lot of phone but I cannot justify that....
Anyone heard a price point on the Storm?
Re: Storm
That's unlocked. They're way cheaper with a contract. Git it.
