To wait for the Bold or not

I went to a Verizon store today, and played with some BB's. The 8330 World Edition actually impressed me (which I didn't expect), but I want to wait for the Bold. Anybody know if it is likely to be out before Sept on Verizons network? Everything I can find says it will be Sept when everybody other then AT&T get the Bold.

I am torn between waiting until Sept (contract renews in August), or getting the 8330 in July. The other thought I had, was get the 8330 right at the end of July and hope the Bold comes out within 30 days of when I get the 8330?
 
Haven't heard anything on when it will be out other than Summer. I have a user who picked up a cheapo phone to use until the bold is out.
 
Well I could just keep my phone as well, until it hits. The issue with this is my phone is turning into a piece of crap (only way to end calls is remove the battery, constant freezes and lockups, "Q" key doesn't work, random restarts, etc).

I have dealt with it since Oct though so another month or two wouldn't be an issue. I just want to get away from this phone ASAP and need to maintain a smartphone (for apps I use on it).
 
Wait for the Bold if the 83xx series is your type of device. The screen is really incredible and along with the new Keyboard and OS you'll be getting a great device.

Also, the Bold has the 3.5mm headphone jack, the 83xx has 2.5mm. It IS bigger, but in width. It's actually slimmer than the 83xx.

Your other option is to wait till the fall...if you can stand your current phone till then.
