FINALLY! FINALLY! FINALLY! Give me just a second to catch my breath! Verizon Wireless has FINALLY unveiled the release date and price for the highly anticipated BlackBerry "Storm". It will become available online and in stores on November 21 (that's one week away!) for the competitive price of $199(after a $50 mail-in rebate)! Beat that overrated iPhone!
The new BlackBerry caps off a crazy (crazy exciting, that is) five-plus months of blockbuster phone debuts, which started in July with the iPhone 3G and continued with T-Mobile's Android-powered G1, the touchscreen Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, the HTC Touch Diamond and Touch Pro on Sprint, and Sony Ericsson's touchscreen Xperia X1 (which Chris just reviewed). I know plenty of people who've been holding off buying anything until the Storm comes out, and based on the early hands-on impressions, the Storm does indeed look like a force to be reckoned with; the clickable "ClickThrough" touchscreen has earned particularly high marks.
The "Storm" comes out the same day the movie Twilight comes out. So I've set out a plan. I'm going to a midnight showing of Twilight, after that (which will be like 2am) I'm going to stand in line at the nearest Verizon store and wait to get my damn phone. I have been a really big fan of Blackberry's for a while, so you could only imagine my excitement when I heard the news that they were coming out with a touch screen for BlackBerry! It will be an early Christmas present to myself.
