First Call: Blackberry Storm
Added on 2008-11-19 16:32:00
by Marianne Schultz

Blackberry's first touchscreen device and bold competitor to the iPhone will be available from Verizon for $199 starting November 21. The Storm features a 3.25" hi-resolution display, a 3.2-megapixel camera, GPS, Bluetooth 2.0, 1GB of internal memory, an internal motion sensor, and both quad-band GSM and CDMA radios, including 3G data on both network standards. The famous Blackberry messaging capability is present, along with the ability to edit Microsoft Office documents on the device, and turn-by-turn GPS with Verizon's VZ Navigator software.

Blackberrys are often the weapon of choice of business users to communicate and stay organized, deployed by the thousands at companies around the world. They've traditionally been a bit short on multimedia capabilities and the fun factor, things the Storm looks to address. But will the Storm stand up to the iPhone 3G and other well-rounded and highly-capable smartphones? We've got our test unit in hand and are working on our in-depth review and scientific testing as you read this. While you wait for that, we've got some first impressions for you...

According to the folks over at CrackBerry, the much-anticipated BlackBerry 9000 will go by the name of BlackBerry BOLD. Not the most imaginative name out there but we guess RIM really wants to promote it as something different and daring.
