  • T-Mobile officially announces Samsung Behold and Gravity

    Filed under: Handsets , Samsung , T-Mobile , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS The long-rumored Samsung T919 Behold has finally broken cover in an official capacity for T-Mobile, offering a full-featured touchscreen handset (that isn't the G1 ) to take advantage of that cute little AWS 3G network they've been cooking up. Besides TouchWiz , features include a 5-megapixel cam with video capability, full HTML web browser (we should certainly hope so), and haptic feedback; look for it to launch on November 10 in your choice of two colors for $149.99 on contract, including the rather lovely "light rose." Next up, we have the Samsung Gravity -- T-Mobile's answer to the endless barrage of low-cost QWERTY texters coming from every other network -- featuring a candybar form that conceals a full keyboard on a side slide. It drops by a week later, November 17 for $49.99 on a two-year plan, in "lime" and "aqua." We think we know which one we'd rather have.

  • AT&T's BlackBerry Bold showing up in stores a day early

    Filed under: Handsets , RIM , ATT , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS Got $299.99? How about a burning desire to have the absolute latest, greatest QWERTY BlackBerry money can buy? You might want to give your local AT&T branch a quick ringy-dingy then, because some of 'em already have Bolds . Yep, that's right -- they're just sitting there in a back room with sad faces, hoping that someone will love them enough to come by and take them home. Do you have room in your heart to save a Bold today? [Thanks, Kal] AT&T's BlackBerry Bold showing up in stores a day early originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Mon, 03 Nov 2008 13:36:00 EST.

  • It's official: BlackBerry Bold hits AT&T on November 4 for $299.99

    Filed under: Handsets , RIM , ATT , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS The hopes and dreams for a "summer release" have long since faded, but at least AT&T's finally agreed to a hard date for the hotly-anticipated Bold : November 4. The news comes courtesy of the company's earnings call -- not the most obvious place to slip in news this big -- but at least it's coming straight from the horse's mouth. [Thanks, Joe] Update: And the press release just slipped out, too -- $299.99 on a two-year contract. Yikes! Permalink | Email this | Comments

  • BlackBerry Bold now available -- in Chile

    Filed under: Handsets , RIM , movistar , GSM , EDGE , HSDPA , UMTS Movistar's Chilean outpost has now become -- somewhat surprisingly, may we add -- the very first carrier in the world to launch the BlackBerry Bold and put it into subscribers' hands. The carrier's making sure everyone knows what a coup they've managed to pull off, too, proudly proclaiming "FIRST ONES IN THE WORLD" with a red banner draped across the Bold's image on Movistar's site. Pricing seems a little high at 299,990 Chilean pesos (about $588) on a two-year contract, but hey, you've gotta pay to play; just how badly do you want to be one of the first people on the face of the planet ( John Mayer notably excepted ) to put this thing to use?
