Honestly, do you think there is something wrong with the phone that requires more testing when they have laready released the phone in a number of other countries without any mention or issues with the problems they are describing. No one has said anything about batter life problems etc with the Bold phones that are already released. There's more to it than we will ever know but there is nothing wrong with the Bold to prevent it from being released. It's a business decision to delay the release date and a very poor one at that. Just my opinion....if there was something wrong with the phone, why is it OK to release in other countries?
