It does fit and the sleeper magnet of the BlackBerry 8800 holster is working.

Can you give us some screen shots of the possibly new installed themes on the Bold? Is there a Today+ version?

[The BlackBerry Kid]

what came in the box with it?
how are the wallpapers?
how are the themes? (is there zen, icon, today, and L)
what was the cost, if you don't mind me asking.

As I am currenlty on Mac only, I can't make the screenshots yet. I will make them tomorrow. I have only three themes:
Precision Silver
Precision Zen
T-Mobile

I haven't yet seen a Today theme for the Bold.

how bout the key board?

[Mark Rejhon]

When I typed on the BlackBerry Bold, the keyboard definitely felt better than the 8800.

Also, it's important to quanitfy which 8800 series keyboard. I dislike the 8800 keyboard, but I like the 8830 keyboard. Note, that the 8830 keyboard is an improved version of the 8800 keyboard, in that RIM made some subtle adjustments in the keyboards' stiffness. The early 8800 keyboards feels more mushy, but the stiffness/tactile feel got improved in later models even though the keyboard visually look the same.

Could you try "streaming audio" -- from an Internet site --to see if you can listen to a radio station (such as CBC or BBC ) in real time? (on 3G?; on 802.11?)

Thanks

Ok here is what I've been told If you can confirm please...

1- The bold can do HTML email composing as well as receiving?
2- The Bold can stream the audio portion of a video via bluetooth?

I'm damn excited about this stupid phone. I wish Rogers would get their sh!t together soon :D

Is the ringer volume the same low/med/high? Low has always been too loud for me and the vibration on my curve is almost nonexistent. Speaking of that, is there ring+vibrate versus vibrate and then ring?

Thanks

can you download podcasts and web feeds and streaming radio?
