I've been in the market for a new phone for about 3 months now. 2 months ago I was torn between the Bold, the 3G iPhone, and the Treo 850. Last month, as more details came out, the Treo dropped off the list (32MB of RAM? 256MB storage? Are you kidding me? Has Palm learned nothing from the 700/750?), and I've been back and forth between the Bold and the iPhone for a few weeks now.
My situation has become more dire - my Treo 700w crashes every time I try to make a call if I've run any application beyond Outlook since my last reset, and my battery isn't lasting more than 12 hours on standby (a real issue for a road-warrior like myself).
Now that the Bold is getting pushed back, I think it's a done deal. Sorry RIM, but time waits for no one! (To sweeten the deal, my boss told me flat out he doesn't want me to go with the iPhone, so _of course_ I'm going to get one).
I'll see you all at an AT&T store on 11 July! (speaking of which, are there any rumours about stock? I leave the office around 6 every day - if I'm at the AT&T store around 7 or 8, will they still have these? Anyone have any links?)
Aaron, I understand ur dilemna. I was torn myself. but just a suggestion have u checked the older model the blackberry curve? great RAM great battery (have gone 36hrs on standby and then just plugged in to charge because it was convenient) i can't live without it now. lol

Well, that settles it for me.
