If I am on a long 2 hour conversation using my Bluetooth headset, I would LOVE to be able to get an important email at the time it was sent, rather than 2 hours later after I am done with my voice call. When it comes out for AT&T people will wonder how they survived without it based on that aspect alone. I can't wait for an HSPDA BlackBerry just for that alone. And I know of a few people who switched to a Windows Mobile device and BlackBerry Connect just so they can keep up with their important emails WHILE talking on the phone to an important client for an hour or two.
So yeah ... HSPDA on a BlackBerry matters a lot.

Yeah booooooooooooooooooooooooooy! I'm right there with you on this one. I work for NBC Universal Media so you know there are thousands of BlackBerry devices within the company, and I don't think that any of them there get it. I don't think they realize what HSPDA really means. I asked an IT guy at NBC if he's been getting hit up for the Bold already, and he told me he tells them they can't get it. What's up with that?
