BlackBerry Bold 9900 available on Rogers today, Torch 9810 comes August 12th

And so it begins. It appears that Rogers is the first carrier to strike in the BlackBerry battle, taking to its Twitter feed to announce that two of the three members of RIM's fall lineup are now sitting comfortably in its retail outlets. The Bold 9900 will start selling today, with the Torch 9810 closely following on August 12th; the Canadian carrier, however, remains silent on when we can expect to see the Torch 9860. Curiously, no official cost has been revealed for either phone, though the rumor mill's pointing to a $250 price tag for the 9900 and $200 for the 9810. Indeed, Rogers has won this battle, but who will win the war?
