I am planning to get it too, now still on consideration between bold 2 or storm2.
Tire with my iPhone 2g 16gb. I also have a 8900 with maxis BIS. Everything is working well.

Going to sell my iPhone and 8900 to get bold2 maybe...
I found a seller at ss15 subang jaya, selling 9700 at RM2,000.00 only. With full warranty. If anyone interested, I will provide u the contact number.
