I have a Bold. Been using it for 6 months. Had an 8310, 8300 (3 different ones in fact), and an 8700 in the past. Yes, I have used many different BB's, those are just the ones I've owned. BB notifications of email do not come in while you are on the phone, period. Guess why? Yep, because the EDGE protocol doesn't support simul voice/data. Shall I continue?

I just tested a few different emails with real attachments (200-300kb), and downloaded while trying to call my device. WHADYA KNOW - straight to voicemail! Guess why genius - EDGE. Can't do simultaneous voice/data. How hard is this concept to grasp? You are wrong.

You are simply wrong on several points. Not all carriers require that you have a data plan, but what has that got to do with this post? And being in the act of downloading an email attachment does not disable the ability to receive a phone call. Well Kyle, I think perhaps you never have actually used a BlackBerry.

When downloading a 2MB file or any data for that matter, you do in fact use data - not voice - and that is why you are required to have a data plan with all BB's on all networks. And that is why data is relevant in most cases. You can NOT do simultaneous voice/data over the EDGE network. Its a fact. 3G is not just faster data, its also voice and data at the same time. If more understood that, more wouldn't be satisfied with an EDGE device. Actually, yes, more than most in fact.

Hey douche, some of us do not care about "surfing the web" on our PHONE. Getting my calls and my emails are what I want from my BB. If I was as concerned about surfing the web, as you seem to be, I would get an iPOS where phone and email are secondary features.

So, anyone think this will hit as the 8920 when ATT launches? It DOES have wifi and EDGE whuc qualifies it as a 8x2x like ATT 8820 and 8320 and 8120 right?
