Or you can just add it to your cart and see if it says $549 or $999.

That's what I want to know, because my understanding is it's AT&T network related. If the Bold doesn't drop calls, I am switching. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TedP]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 4th 2008 10:42AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T kicks off BlackBerry Bold sales on the web]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/atandt-kicks-off-blackberry-bold-sales-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/atandt-kicks-off-blackberry-bold-sales-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[I placed my Bold order this morning, so I can't yet comment on that... However, in my household I do have 3 different ATT 3G phones (iPhone 3G, LG Shine, and Tilt) and a couple EDGE BlackBerries as well (8310 and 8110).  The iPhone is BY FAR the flakiest, and drops calls the most.  Every friend and family member I have spoken to who also has an iPhone 3G experiences similar call drops, failed signal fixes, and general crappiness. All of these iPhones are up to date with the newest available software, and used in varying signal strength conditions.<br><br>I just hope the Bold lives up to my 8310, and I hope I don't regret not waiting for the Javelin / Curve 8900.  I'd forgo 3G for the smaller form factor with no question.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Steve]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 4th 2008 12:52PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T kicks off BlackBerry Bold sales on the web]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/atandt-kicks-off-blackberry-bold-sales-on-the-web/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/03/atandt-kicks-off-blackberry-bold-sales-on-the-web/</guid><description><![CDATA[Just got my Bold this morning and I have not dropped a call yet.

Att even gave me $50 off.  I have only had it for 4 hours now, and I do have to say its by far the best blackberry yet.  I am simply amazed.  Call quality is night and day compared to my 8800.  I love this thing.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[hoostie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 5th 2008 5:55PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
