BlackBerry Bold giveaway! Get one for your hood!
Since RIM completely screwed the pooch on this one (you know, like, delays for seven years?), we’re going to try and make it up to you! We’re giving away 5 BlackBerry Bolds for your local service provider. The 5 we are giving away are: AT&T, T-Mobile Germany, Rogers, Orange UK, and PCCW HK. The winner of the AT&T Bold won’t get their unit until launch since all devices we’re giving away are purchased from the respective carriers. You’ve got to play to win they say. Not so much when you’re dealing with a BGR giveaway, though. To enter, just email us a photo of your current BlackBerry. The more damaged the BlackBerry is, the higher chance you have of winning. Get it? Also drop in a comment from the same email with what carrier you’d like. RIM made you mad by making you wait, they might have even had you think impure thoughts. Now you can lay back and relax, ’cause your good friend Boy Geezie and the rest of the folks at BGR are going to hook you up!
- Send pictures to blackberrycontest at boygeniusreport dot com
- Make sure you comment here in addition to sending in the picture. Also specify what carrier you want!
- You can enter as many times are you like, just make sure they are different BlackBerrys
- *Highly damaged BlackBerrys are a plus*
- We’re going to add all pictures to our world-famous gallery. If you don’t want your picture included (freak) don’t enter.
- We’ll run this until this Sunday, August 24th at 11:59PM ET
- The BlackBerry Bolds in the photo are not the units you will be receiving. You will be receiving a brand new Bold in box that is locked to the requested carrier.
UPDATE: Wow, we’ve got almost 200 entries already! But! You need to comment also, people.
hello…
too bad i dont have a blackberry.
sent in the email along with the pics
tmo usa, hook it bg
I have been waiting on the BOLD for months. My send button doesn’t work on my Curve nor does the USB port. I have to switch a battery out with my old 8700… PICK me:-) AT&T here
High altitude… Blackberry 7510 meets climbing equipment…
2 points for damage… additional 2 points for it being a dinosaur BB… and 2 more points for the external antenna making the phone as ugly as the damage! Yikes
ROGERS…
This contest is not just about the wait for the Blackberry Bold…
This is an ode to whoever designed the (crapy) clips and cases that come standard with some of the phones….
designed to eject your phone at random intervals!
currant, 7100i… dropped in the woods… found 30 days later in a mud puddle… Thats not water on the screen… that is water “in” the screen… this apart from all the other ejections bounces and skids across roads and rocks… still working! mostly
this thing is a tank! (on its last legs!)
thanks for the fun contest BG….. Go for Rogers
hey I sent my email with my photos and I got a return message saying that delivery was delayed and there is no need to re-send it…it had time of delivery for today so please dont end this without seeing my beat up blackberry!!!!!!!!
I desperately need a Bold! Oh, I hope I’m not too late.
Sent my photos of a damaged 8700 dinosaur. Now if I only win and if AT&T ever releases the bold, I’ll be a happy blackberry owner.
Not sure where my post went, but I’ll post again in case it crapped out being transmitted like the photos of the 8700 I sent.
Sweetness as always…. wish I lived in Germany, I guess the competition is not as stiff for that Bold… It looks as if everyone is shooting for AT&T… Best of luck to all…
Of the 5 people that do win, what if 2 of them want a certain carrier? So they both get it, or is it the best ones out of each carrier will win?
I really need to win something.
I could use (need) a blackberry bold for tmobile. my boy blue, aka the blue wave, has lost all its momentum.
Yo, BGR thanks for giving me a chance to upgrade cuz my old blackberry’s pretty shot.
AT&T Please.
Where is the gallery of messed up blackberries?
I hope I win!
Mine would be the old and beat 8700g from T-Mobile that I have had for quite some time now. It needs the upgrade…. I need the upgrade!
I could really use that AT&T Bold! My Curve us missing the scroll wheel and I have to remove it and reattach it in order to scroll up or down! Help!
As you will see my T-Mobile Berry is definately in dire need of help!!! Please take a look!!
I hope I win, my 7100g is getting tired.
at&t Bold for me.
My poor, poor curve… Fingers crossed.
Oh, and Rogers please.
Hey guys,
I really need a new phone to save me from my Rogers Pearl reburbs and FrankenBerry.
All the best,
Matthew Ball
Woot Tmobile!
