This prediction is closed and has been judged.
Judgment: The Blackberry Bold was released on November 4, 2008, ahead of the Storm. The community correctly predicted this outcome.
Original prediction: The Blackberry Bold has been released internationally but it's US debut has been held up by AT&T in testing as they do not want a repeat of the problems encountered with the Apple iPhone 3G.
Verizon announced publicly the debut of the Blackberry Storm which will be exclusive to Verizon in the US and has no specific release date except before the Christmas season.
The iPhone is exclusive to AT&T in the US, and some could argue Verizon Wireless needs a competitive touch screen offering beyond their current lineup.
Predict: The prediction is that the Blackberry Storm will start selling in the US markets before the Blackberry Bold. In the unlikely event that neither product is released before the prediction close date, this prediction will be judged as untrue.

According to http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2008/10/28/blackberry-release-dates-roundu... and Crackberry as the source:
The BlackBerry Pearl 8220 on Rogers ships on 29th of October - - the BlackBerry Bold on AT&T ships 4th November - - The BlackBerry Storm on Verizon ships everywhere 17th November but Best Buy gets it on the 16th and corporate stores the 15th - - The BlackBerry Storm on Vodafone ships 11th November - - and the BlackBerry Storm on Bell ships 21st November.
BTW, there is an error on the verbiage. Change
"Predict: The prediction is that the Blackberry Storm will start selling in the US markets before the Blackberry Storm. "
to
"Predict: The prediction is that the Blackberry Storm will start selling in the US markets before the Blackberry Bold."
AT&T confirms Nov 4 for Blackberry Bold. Best Buy already accepts pre-order for unlocked Bold. As for Blackberry Storm, VZW is still indicating "Coming Soon" but leaks are all pointing to a Nov 15 earliest availability.
