Ok, so I removed the battery from my Bold, then I look on the screen and the last image I had on the screen is still there. I wait 30 seconds, its faded but still there. I wait 60 seconds, faded, but I can still see it.
I come on here and I'm typing up this post, and. . . . .still there. I tilt it slightly to the light, and I can read everything that was (well still is) on the screen.
2 minutes without the battery in and I can still read what was on the screen last, albeit faded.
3 minutes, blank screen...whew!
So unfunded, unscientific research shows that it takes about 3 minutes for the BlackBerry Bold to dissipate all charge and show a blank screen.
