Four of the big North American GSM carriers wasted little time making their official announcements of the BlackBerry Bold 9700 coming right off the hills of the official announcement from Research in Motion. No official official release dates have been announced, however, all four carriers say that their branded version of the BlackBerry Bold 9700 will be available within weeks.
We don’t expect that it will be too long before Telus announces the BlackBerry Bold 9700, unless, of course, they are going the route that Verizon is going with not officially announcing the BlackBerry Storm2 9550. We will leave the Verizon Storm2 debacle for another post…

When carrier promotional materials start showing up for upcoming BlackBerry devices it is usually a telltale sign that the launch of the device is just around the corner. That being said, promotional materials for the Rogers BlackBerry Curve 8520 have started to show up in Rogers retail outlets.

Earlier this morning we heard that the Rogers BlackBerry Bold was going to be delayed again. Well, it turns out that this is only partly true. You are able to go and purchase the BlackBerry Bold on Rogers site, however, you might be SOL if you were hoping to run into a Rogers store and pick one up.

This is really starting to get old.

CrackBerry.com got there hands on sales information for the Rogers BlackBerry Bold and to make a long story short, the darn thing costs way too much.

Existing BlackBerry may be willing to pay this amount, however, new potential BlackBerry users that were debating between the BlackBerry Bold and the iPhone have a about 200 reasons why the should go with shouldn’t go with the BlackBerry Bold.

Word on the street is that the Rogers will will launch the BlackBerry Bold up in Canada on July 15th. BlackBerry Cool reader RogersDude69 is reporting that Rogers is holding a series of BlackBerry Launch Events for business executives.
One could presume that this launch will be for a device that actually has been announced so we believe that it is a pretty good bet that the it will be the BlackBerry Bold.
