The 3G speed and browser make using the mobile Web a much improved experience. My AT&T licensed reseller invited me to take a look at the Bold this past Friday. After seeing the screen, hearing the stereo sound, and after waiting for so long for AT&T to release the Bold, I bought phone on the spot. The sales rep activated the phone and set up the Email for me while I was in the store. By the time I had left, I had 200 E-mails that had downloaded to the phone. The phone is AWESOME!!! I'm glad I sprung at the chance to buy the Bold. I have been using an export model of the Bold and have experienced no problems with it.

Works great, 2G, 3G, EDGE! Only problem I have is that Privus Mobile (caller I'd program) worked on my 8820 but not the BOLD. Using Bold Asian version I bought on EBAY. Works great, 2G, 3G, EDGE!

I am kind of skittish about upgrading since it has been working so well... I am still using 4.6.0.50 and it is working like a charm.

Aside from going through different builds; some better with keeping a 3G than others, I've had no major issues. With every build, I see things like constant switching from edge, EDGE and 3G but the recent build of .162 seems to be holding 3G pretty well.

There is a new firmware out there now and it's the .162 build at: http://www.berryreview.com/2008/10/02/bold-os-460162-found-online/ From the comments posted, 2G dominates and the high speed is no longer high speed. (comment #9 by Buzz) My question: can you give that a run and see if it makes any difference? also would that eliminate the random dropped calls and reboots for Kevin's Bold? Thanks...
