BlackBerry Bold Coming to AT&T Mid-September

The BlackBerry Bold will be coming to North America within the month now that RIM (Research In Motion) has launched it in Chile and Germany. The Bold is RIM's first major BlackBerry model in more than a year. It offers twice the screen resolution of current BlackBerry models. The Bold matches the resolution, but not the size, of the screen on Apple's iPhone, which has emerged as a competitor in the smartphone market.AT&T said it will be the exclusive U.S. carrier for the Bold, as it is for the iPhone.Reports expect AT&T to start selling it mid-September and Rogers in Canada to release it late-August. Some stores in Canada have already unveiled store models and fliers.

RIM had announced a summer release for the Bold, but issues with chips and battery life caused a delay. It unveiled the Bold in Chile on July 22 and in Germany on Aug 6.

The Bold features a glossy metallic frame with corporate Wi-Fi capabilities, 3G high-speed access and Bluetooth connectivity. Similar to the Curve, it integrates a horizontal screen above a trackball and a keyboard with one letter per key.

Nokia Cuts Phone Prices, Pressuring Rivals

Finnish cell phone maker Nokia cut prices for many of its handsets in July, putting further pressure on its rivals' already thin profits. Nokia made the steepest price reductions of up to 10 percent for selected music and media phones, while it made smaller cuts across the portfolio.The sharpest falls were in the average retail price of the 5310 and 5610 music phones and the multimedia N81 8GB. The price cuts follow Nokia's launch of its Supernova phone range - aggressively priced products with integrated music players, challenging Sony Ericsson's Walkman portfolio.

Manufacturers are facing an increasingly intense battle for market share as demand for pricey phones has started to slow in the U.S. and Europe, where economies are under pressure from the global credit crunch.

The price cuts from Nokia, which controls 40 percent of the cell phone market, will put further pressure on its smaller rivals like Sony Ericsson, which has focused on music and camera phones. Sony Ericsson made practically no money in the April-June quarter, and said it would cut 2,000 jobs as it forecast the remainder of 2008 would also be tough.

Struggling Motorola has made losses since its flagship RAZR phone lost appeal among consumers. Nokia increased its market share to 41 percent in the second quarter, helped by surging demand in emerging markets.
