oh my god. I am hoping for the 3rd week of august 18-23. My insider says mass production started awhile back now it's just the carriers turn to decide for the release. If mass production was awhile back like a month I am guessing a couple of weeks until Rogers and other companies start releasing them =). I love the Bold and when it comes out and whoever else purchases one will enjoy it as well. Until then lets respect others' posts and what not. "why can't we be friends..."
