RIM's BlackBerry Bold (probably) hitting AT&T on October 27th

RIM's BlackBerry Bold wasn't technically supposed to have launched already -- that's the magic in being all vague about a release date, we guess -- but we can safely say we're absolutely relieved to finally have something out in the open here. Even if it's not carved in stone, per se. An internal AT&T e-mail discovered today notes that the "latest ETA" for the release of the Bold is October 27th (with a price TBD), though we'd feel a lot better about that if it said "definitive release date." At any rate, we'll find out in just ten days. Ten. Days.

can someone explain the hype around this one? is it just the new form factor that people are excited about? is there a new interface? isn't this bb still obscenely wide for a phone...can't imagine sticking that into my pocket, but then again i keep a Tytn II in there, which is obscenely thick for a phone. i think the new LG Incite is something to look forward to though.
