Silly Q, but I have the Curve now. Where is a reliable/best best place to buy the Bold right now? Anyone got recommendations?

[Jarrod623]

Does not matter where you go... Same price everywhere... However I have noticed that bestbuy has more accessories.

I bought mine at Best Buy. Printed out the page from AT&T's website and they gave it to me for $549 instead of the $659 they're trying to charge without contract.

Yes my bad.... All phone prices with a contract activation or upgrade are regulated by ATT, however non-contracted pricing is a free-for-all and never the same anywhere.

And as JC said, if you use the discount in his and other members signatures, a bold unlock will cost you $10.00. Probably one of the lowest rates on the internet. As you can see, we are recomended by the guys here cause we actually care about our customers and they all see that. We respond to questions, emails and are very active on this board. Whatever you folks need just let us know

They answered mine on the weekend, Sunday night though I was already sleeping! I wish I had known to put in the code for the discount though! Dang!!!

Quick question: How do we confirm the BB is actually unlocked?

I got my Bold unlocked through Horizon last weekend... too bad I didn't know about the code. But still, even without the code it was cheaper than others that I've seen.

"Options"-->"Advanced Options"-->"SIM Card"...type M-E-P-D (won't show up on screen as you type)...If next to "Network" it says "Disabled, you're unlocked. If it says "Active" you're still locked to your carrier. Don't try to change anything on this screen!

Maybe putting your friends SIM card would be easier. Who knows.

Simple. And you can't hurt anything.

How do I determine if my BlackBerry is "unlocked"? - BlackBerryFAQ

[DSS597]

My phone is already unlocked. I paid for the code and I entered it myself. But what does that really mean? I don't know if it's really unlocked unless I jump on a plane, fly across the pond, and then try to use the phone with another SIM. So again how do I "confirm" my already unlocked phone?

[DSS597]

Exactly what I was looking for. Much obliged!
