While the Bold may be as bad as rumors say, the issues should have been discovered before it was offered up for sale to customers.  If the approval process was followed, the issues should be no surprise to the carrier.  In this case, shame on the carrier for releasing an inferior product.  If the approval process wasn't followed, then the same shame on the carrier for not protecting the interests of its customers and its investors.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[WirelessGeek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 4th 2009 4:07PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Orange could be dropping the BlackBerry Bold... forever]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/04/orange-could-be-dropping-the-blackberry-bold-forever/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/04/orange-could-be-dropping-the-blackberry-bold-forever/</guid><description><![CDATA[Orange should have followed AT&T with holding back and making sure the device was PERFECT on their network before releasing it into the wild.

(*With the shipping software; .167)<br><br>When I first got my Bold it locked up and rebooted a lot, and dropped tons of calls. Now that I've gone through a few software updates, both beta and official (from other carriers), it's a lot better. I'm currently running the beta .217 OS and it's very good. I've also unlocked the other carrier themes so I have more choice (I use Orange's actually). ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MRCUR]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 4th 2009 7:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Orange could be dropping the BlackBerry Bold... forever]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/04/orange-could-be-dropping-the-blackberry-bold-forever/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/04/orange-could-be-dropping-the-blackberry-bold-forever/</guid><description><![CDATA[I never had any problems with version 167, didn't have any problems with 190. I do get drop calls, but considering the fact it only happens with a person on the Sprint Network, and lately hes been getting issues all around with Sprint to begin with in his area, not a problem.<br>I DO get dropped calls otherwise, but I got those even when I had a rzr... no biggy. Everything else works flawlessly. My only grip is that hey... could of dipped into a 512, even a 1 gig of Internal Application Memory! dinky 128 aint enuff...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JohnMidnight]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 4th 2009 11:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Orange could be dropping the BlackBerry Bold... forever]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/04/orange-could-be-dropping-the-blackberry-bold-forever/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2009/01/04/orange-could-be-dropping-the-blackberry-bold-forever/</guid><description><![CDATA[I am on my fifth Bold that was running AT&T .167, .167 ranks right up there with Microsoft Windows OS. I tired .190, .210 and currently running .217 not the best but it has the least amount of problems.  The dropped calls with .167 & .190 were on cell phones and landlines regardless of carrier.  While AT&T may have run their battery of test before releasing the Bold there has to be something wrong with it.  With all the beta OS that have been released it has to be one of two things a hardware issue or operating system or both problem.  It appears that RIM's quality control is suffering.  My two cents only.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ozziedog]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 5th 2009 10:11PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
