i am picking up my Bold at CSL Hong Kong tomorrow at 1000am (1000pm Sunday night East Coast U.S. time). They are finally releasing it here starting Monday (on PCCW also I assume). Cost without a contract from CSL $5180 HKD ($665 USD) that is unlocked. They said "they will have better promotional disount prices available tomorrow when you sign up for a contract and depending on the contract." - It is about time

Thanks--there's a thread here in the release:
