good point on 8900's stability. I've been surfing and reading more up on the 8900 vs the Bold and I'm learning, just like as you were saying, the main difference is 3G. I would love to use my BB on 3G but I can probably live w/o it as my current curve on EDGE works just fine.
I also see that the 8900 advantages are:
UMA - good for me because I get spotty reception down in my garage.
3.2 MP Camera - definitely a nice bump from the 2.0 MP
Form Factor - For me, the smaller the better. Also, if its similar in size as the Curve, my leather belt holster should still work so that is nice to know that I don't have to buy another one.
Overall, I think I've done enough reading and information searching on deciding whether I should get the 8900 or wait for the BOLD,
The final verdict.... 8900.
Counting down the days until Feb 11th, (and crossing fingers that its no more than $199.99 w/ new contract)
Thanks everyone!
