It’s bigger than the curve AND even though it’s 3G, the new OS doesn’t support Flash. Oh wow! I’ll get my call display in a slightly higher resolution… thanks, but no thanks.

RIM is just desperate to compete with the iPhone, and in my opinion, doing so by releasing a new product for the sake of releasing a new product. There is nothing revolutionary about the Bold. I’ll stick with my Curve.

What we need is what the Japanese have had for more than a decade… broadband cellular speeds and cheap data plans. What’s the point of the iPhone coming to Canada, if it’s too expensive to use as a data device? You might as well get the Touch and pretend…

I heard that by the fall it should be out in Canada… Anyone know if this is true/false?
