Blackberry Bold's Pricing To Be Very Bold

Well if you were looking to add that Blackberry Bold to your gadget collection, be ready to pony up some serious coin. Our neighbors to the north will be getting the Bold first, and it looks like we’ve gotten a sneak peek at the pricing. According to this leaked photo the Bold will cost the Cannucks $399 with a 3 year soul sucking contract. This is rather steep considering the same cellular company Rogers is offering the iphone for $199. That most likely means that the price will be similar in the states, and that puts to bed any thought of price wars with Blackberry and Apple.

Not sure if this is a good move on Blackberry’s part, considering the adoption of the iphone into the Business world.

Comcast To Charge $2.95 Monthly For Tivo Service

Well we finally have pricing for when Comcast rolls out Tivo to your neck of the woods, and like we thought, Tivo will be treated like a premium service. Comcast will be rolling out the Tivo UI on those crappy ass Motorola/Scientific Atlanta for $2.95 extra a month. Or you can keep that horrid Motorola/Scientific Atlanta UI that we've had to endure in order to have an HD DVR. Comcast will download the UI to your current DVR, so the change should be painless. I think $2.95 a month is a small price to pay to keep your sanity when searching for when your favorite show will air.
