Reports are surfacing that due to irregularly high return rates and software glitches (such as dropped calls and unexplained restarts), Orange is on the verge of pulling the BlackBerry 9000 from their lineup. The Storm I could understand, but the Bold? Really? I haven’t had a single problem with my Bold, and I’ve been packing it since launch day on Rogers. Every carrier has their own quirks though, and for some reason repeated chances to fix them have failed. The Bold has been publicly available for almost 6 months now, so you would think all the bugs would have been smooshed but good, but maybe it’s for the best if this BlackBerry is a headache to customers. Have you guys had any problems with your Bolds?
