I was really interested in the BlackBerry Storm 2. I am definitely interested to see how it shakes out. The Storm 2 is the second generation BlackBerry with a touch-sensitive screen, successor of the highly-anticipated Storm. The BlackBerry Storm 2 also adds WiFi, I believe OS 5 adds the ability to store apps on an SD card. Been using a Storm a friend lent me with the new OS 5.0 for a couple weeks now and I have to say I love it and the screen is so beautiful that I can deal with it.

The BlackBerry Storm 2 features include a 3.25-inch 360 x 480 pixel capacitive SurePress touchscreen display, a 3.2 megapixel camera with video recording, 802.11b/g WiFi and 2100MHz UMTS/HSPA data, 256MB of flash memory, 2GB of onboard memory with microSDHC expansion, 3.5-mm standard headset jack, built-in GPS, Bluetooth 2.1 and running BlackBerry OS 5. The BlackBerry Storm 2 is likely to appear in November at around $200. I definitely will buy it. I’ve been waiting like forever for this phone.
