SingTel's BlackBerry Bold Pricing

Final post for the night before I storm off to bed.


The BlackBerry Bold 9000 will be available from SingTel for S$988 (~approx US$696). That's the price without a contract. With a contract, I'll estimate it to be lower at maybe $488 or so.



SingTel also introduces 4 "exclusive" programs for the BB:


- Worldmate Live (Gold)
- WayFinder
- GreenFinder
- Viigo




These will be value-added services that can be triggerd via an SMS from your BB. The programs will be pushed to your BB. Yes, current BBs such as the 87xx and 83xx are supported. So are the Pearls.

Unfortunately, no pricing or instructions given as yet to get them.

Well. Good night. And good luck with your gadgets.

May the bytes be with you.

  5. Yes, do you know when the BB Bold will be released by Sngtel. I went to the comcentre shop to see if I can get one, and the lady there said that it was rumored to have been available last weekend, but the Bold was a no-show.

    So she's telling me to hang on for a bit longer.

  6. Stocks are very limited for now. It's only available to pre-orders and those are already overwhelming.
