BlackBerry Bold 9700 now on sale to all at AT&T: $200 on contract

T-Mobile (along with a number of overseas carriers) have had RIM's BlackBerry Bold 9700 for some time now, and while we knew that the handset was shipping to those who AT&T considers "special" and "irreplaceable," the rest of the collective masses have simply had to sit on the sidelines and wait. Thankfully, that whole bout with patience is over, as the Bold 9700 is now available to order directly from the operator's website for $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate and your John Henry on a 2-year agreement. So, anyone forcing Santa to come early this year, or what?

[Thanks, Ry]

I had the phone for less than 30 days, it was actually my second 9000. :( if you go though, I've never had a problem getting an early upgrade or partial upgrade.

Being angry about other people's buying decisions is awesome. Good luck with it.

I'm one of those mofos, well at least I want to be, I'm still contemplating buying the phone only from AT&T and calling for the unlock code or just asking at the store straight out. But I already have a Curve 8900 which is pretty much this phone sans the 5.0 OS which is OK as I've tried it and the 3G radio which Rogers doesn't deliver very good on. As for RIM I've said this a while back most new Blackberry phones are pretty much the same with tweaks here and there.
