BBGeekcast: October 17, 2008 – Episode 34

Posted by Joe on October 17, 2008

Plenty to talk about in regards to the new line of BlackBerry devices. We’ve got news on the Storm (hint: no Rogers), the Bold (hint: not released yet), and the 8220 (hint: could be a price reduction). Plus, BGR hints at a touchscreen Bold to be announced at WES 2009.

Highlights include:

AT&T had a BlackBerry Bold release party in New York City last night, and apparently everyone in attendance was supposed to get a Bold. Except they didn’t, because it’s not ready yet. Ugh. The end of the month predictions aren’t looking too promising right now. Could the Bold come out after the Storm?

We touch on the release of the BlackBerry 8220 on T-Mobile in the U.S. They’re showing commercials for it during the baseball playoffs right now, in addition to the generic BlackBerry ads.
