Blackberry Storm Touches Down November 2008

The very first touchscreen Blackberry, the Blackberry Storm, looks set to launch later this year – November, if the latest reports are true. While the 3G iPhone and the Googlephone have been drawing all the news, the PDA specialists have been a little quiet. That’s about to change with the Blackberry Storm.

As was to be expected from Canadian manufacturers RIM, the features on the Blackberry Storm are making a clear statement of intent – “We don’t fear Apple or anyone else.”

  • Full Haptic touch screen capability (no physical keyboard)
  • Quad band coverage
  • Wi-Fi
  • HSDPA GPS
  • 3.2 mega-pixel camera

Although there’s no confirmation of price yet, the smart money’s on $199 with a 2-year contract. With the all-important Christmas technology purchase season on the horizon, the November release date for the Blackberry Storm should make it an interesting Smartphone battle in the coming months.
