We’ve written quite a few posts today and in recent weeks pointing out that AT&T still hasn’t released the BlackBerry Bold, while most international carriers have beaten them to the punch. We like doing this — maybe out of friendly U.S./Canada sibling rivalry, maybe because we’re just not nice people.
However, we feel for the American members of the BlackBerry Nation, and we’re looking to help them out. A BBCool reader has tipped us off that the New York BlackBerry Center is selling AT&T BlackBerry Bolds a little sooner than they should. While anyone in the NYC area can swing by the Time and Life Building on 6th Ave. and West 50th to pick one up, the New York BlackBerry Center also has them available for sale at their website BlackBerryBusiness.com. The damage? USD $1,500!! But hey, pre-release BlackBerrys don’t come cheap.
If any of our NY readers can swing by the New York BlackBerry Center to snap a picture, we’d be much obliged.
It’s gone down in price already… it’s only $1299.99 now.
Don’t all rush now, will you!
Price is ridiculous! Wait a little longer and it will come down to a managable $399!
“This phone is UNLOCKED and may be used with any GSM carrier in the world.”
Just waiting to get out of work to take a peek. I work around the corner so hopefully I’ll get a pic.
Had my hands on a non-dummy model. Ooooooh it’s nice. Damn service rep got it out of my hands before I could snap a good picture. I did get a blurry one though. Got a rather highly paid lawyer to buy one. He nearly pissed his boxers when he put his SIM in.
How did you know the dude was wearing boxers?
I bot one. Fyi–they are rogers unlocked ones.
A local store in NYC has them in stock. Prices are the same but the best thing is that they have them in stock and they are brand new. They have over 40 units in stock. All unlocked and ready to go. Dial +1.212.583.9100 and Ask for Ben or BJ. All the very best.
