BlackBerry Bold users have noticed that there are 3G issues on the device, as the signal drops in certain locations and the same goes to the iPhone 3G. The Bold apparently has a software issue, while the iPhone 3G fault hasn't been pointed out yet.

“We had a few occasional 3G signal dropping troubles at some locations especially on high-rises building streets & on our 34th floor (EDGE picked up immediately but slower internet speeds),” wrote Suva, a Citigroup analyst. He thinks RiM have delayed introducing the Bold because they want to iron out the 3G kinks with a software patch.

The Bold has been released not long ago and is set to compete against the Nokia E71 and the upcoming Palm Treo Pro. The phone is a business smartphone, also known as the BlackBerry 9000.

The iPhone 3G has had many more complaints, but it has been available for longer than the Bold. Apple's second phone is in a market where it usually crushes the competition, but it isn't available in many countries. 50 more countries should receive in by the end of the year.

Below is a video portraying the differences between the iPhone Safari browser, and the Bold's browser. Download the video, or embed it.
