Blackberry Bold free at WalMart with signup

by James in Mobile Phones

WalMart is offering the new BlackBerry Bold for free with the sign up of a two-year contract with at least the 1350 minute talk plan and unlimited text messaging. The plan, starts at $79.99 per month or more and is available through wireless carrier AT&T. The $199 mail-in rebate from LetsTalk.com. But is it worth it? If you’re on the “CrackBerry,” it may very well be.

The Bold has been eagerly awaited and looking at the specs, we can see why. It comes with a stunningly sharp and colorful color LCD screen which has twice the resolution of other BlackBerry devices. The Bold also comes Wi-Fi-Enabled for direct Internet Access. There’s also a built-in GPS Receiver for location-based applications like BlackBerry Maps , both Bluetooth and USB 2.0 connectivity, and a 2.0 Megapixel camera for Picture Messaging.

But the real benefit of the BlackBerry is what it’s always been – text messaging and mobile email. That doesn’t change as it contains the hallmark BlackBerry keyboard as well. So for those who spend their life on SMS, perhaps this WalMart offer is ideal. When you consider that the phone costs nearly $400 before subsidizies, it’s rather tempting to amortize that cost over the course of the contract. Especially for something so shiny!

I wanted to point out that with the launch of the Bold, RIM and AT&T are also showcasing a handful of BlackBerry apps.

Some full disclosure, I’m the product manager for one of those apps called, Viigo. Hundreds of thousands of BlackBerry users are using Viigo every day to stay up to date with their Sports Scores/Schedules, Stock Prices and Portfolios, News & RSS, Weather Updates, Flight Search/Tracking, etc. etc.

You can download Viigo for free OTA by browsing to http://getviigo.com/?bold
Would love to hear your feedback on the product – please email it to feedback (@) Viigo.com.

I hear that the plan they force you to get has a bunch of restrictions though. So you end up paying more in the long run, especially if you are a heavy user.
