Just ordered my BlackBerry Bold!

I was eligible for an upgrade, so ordered the BlackBerry Bold with no commitment. Surprisingly, I was eligible for a $100 rebate with no commitment. It's a Visa card, but I'll have no problem spending it with the holidays around the corner.

Free 2-day shipping, so it'll be here by Friday.

congrats on the Bold chris! I'm surprised they offered it no commitment, my buddy went to buy his and they told him it would be 45 days before they would sell it no committment. I of course was not eligible because I change phones so often, but I did manage to do a little work around and save a bit of money. I added a line and got the 550 min family plan. I'm just gonna use the $100 visa card for groceries and put that 100 toward my ETF i'll have to pay on the 2nd line. Still, 399-100+175= 474 Saved a lil money over the full retail price.

Drop me a PM with your PIN when ya get it so I can add ya on BB messenger!

I did it online through AT&T. I had a Curve that I purchased from Craigslist and had a 1 year plan. It just ended, so it was perfect timing. I could have upgraded for $299.99 with the 2-year or $449.99 with no commitment. The way I go through phones, I thought the no commitment might be best.

Looking forward to it. I've been playing around with the G1. Next up is the Treo Pro and the Bold. Lots of fun toys on my desk.

Yeah no commitment or unlocked is the only way I roll-except with the upgrade i used on the iPhone 3g

I got the G1 on a month to month with TMO. I did add the line to get my Bold, just to circumvent the system, but I'll be ponying up that ETF money soon lol
