RIM goes pale, shows white Curve 8520 for T-Mobile and Bold for AT&T

We know it's after Labor Day, but that doesn't seem to be stopping RIM from rolling out a couple BlackBerrys in bright white this season -- and who are we to accuse Waterloo of a fashion faux-pas? First up, the Curve 8520 on T-Mobile is now available, complementing the black and "frost" versions that have already landed; perhaps more interesting, though, is direct confirmation from RIM that there'll be a white version Bold hitting AT&T in mid-October. With the Bold 2 seemingly around the corner, recoloring the current model seems like an odd move -- but if they can continue to sell the Bold at a moderate discount a la iPhone 3G / 3GS, there might yet be a strategy there. The version RIM had on hand wasn't AT&T-branded, but... you know, just imagine the silkscreened logo and customized wallpaper, and you'll get the idea.

I'd never buy one, but that white Bold is scrumptious

Agreed, The phone is like Megan Fox, just like I couldn't date Megan Fox , I couldn't own a Bold, but damn it's nice to look at.

Finally Rim introduces white color to stay in competition against White E71.
IT looks nice, but the lit keyboard makes me think its like a toy. Without lit keyboard, it looks nice. However, i like the back cover of E71 more.

Surprisingly... They look really nice. I would get one if i didn't have my white iPhone lol

Will they increase the memory to 256 on the bold? Will they up the memory on the current black version? Why not just release the 9700 in both white and black? Where am I and what am I doing here?
