T-Mobile pulls BlackBerry Bold and Curve off European shelves

Okay, relax, T-Mobile USA folks — this doesn't affect you — but you should at least show a little sympathy for your European counterparts who are suddenly feeling the sting of a BlackBerry-less existence. Mobile Cowboys has learned that Bolds and Curves have both been unceremoniously yanked from store shelves, apparently due to a bug that's causing overage on customers' plans. The problem's been confirmed on the Curve, and as a precaution, the Bold has been pulled as well — which, sadly, isn't the first time the 9000's been gagged on a carrier. Presumably, we'll see both of these pop back up just as soon as a new firmware gets thrown into the pipeline — and existing customers are assured that they'll be reimbursed for any BlackBerry-induced screw-ups.
