New toy soon… yay!
So Blackberry are about to release their new Bold device. I think AT&T are going to be the first ones to carry it in the world, and they don’t have a firm release date yet. Supposedly though, Optus might release it before the end of August. Telstra will be very close behind in mid-September. Good that a big handset release is actually happening in Australia concurrently with the rest of the world.
But more importantly, my mobile specialist colleagues and I are getting one, which we were all very excited about. And then today, my boss told me that she got word that we may have them as early as the end of the week. That would make me amongst the first people in the world outside RIM (the makers of Blackberry) to have one… how exciting!

AT&T will more than likely be the first to carry this. The problem appears to be that the actual wireless network in the US isn’t fast enough to cope because nobody’s built enough towers, or servers or switching points… ah yes, the joys of competition.
