I'm waiting for the Storm too and I don't want them to think we are ok with $299. I want it to swing more towards the $199 price point but honestly [Whisper] I would pay $299 for it too. [/Whisper]

what high priced vzw plans?
plus its rev.a evdo, so no need for wifi
and this phone was designed for vzw/voda. thus it wouldn't be locking things]]>Oct 22nd 2008 7:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/22/its-official-blackberry-bold-hits-atandt-on-november-4/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/22/its-official-blackberry-bold-hits-atandt-on-november-4/
If you've also been complaining that Canada and other countries already have this phone. This is the price we've been having to pay:

That is $600 here in Canada.

The above comment is the Canadian price with Rogers. I am interested in the price in States.
