This information just came out. Obviously, the device seems to be doing well.

Blackberry Storm 2 September Release Date for Telus? | BlackBerry Boards News

I'm glad RIM is learning some lesson with the Storm 2. Apple needs a worthy competitor. I couldn't tell, but I'm hoping they went with a capacitive screen.

I still don't think the Storm2 would be a big competitor with the iPhone.. My cousin has the new iPhone 3Gs 32GB and it is a really cool device, but Its the reliability of the BlackBerry and Push Email that keeps me, BlackBerry is a big communication device, while the iPhone is more of "toy" in my opinion.

All depends what the consumer wants, which depicts what they get.

Funny you should mention that, a friend of a friend just got rid of his blackberry for an iPee 3Gs and loves it, he claims that his boss gave him a 20k raise just for having an iPee and not a Blackberry. :(

I'm his 20k raise involved more then just using an iPhone.

But it really depends on what the person wants, which depicts what they will by. BlackBerry has been doing a good job getting their name out there recently.

Apparently he claims because he used his iPee and a few of the applications to replace his engineer tools his boss gave him a 20k raise. I told he's nuts because I would not trust his work if he used anything but the certified equipment to take measurements.

What is this world coming too?

Why is the phone showing ATT EDGE? Definitely a cool looking phone. May be enough for me to port my # from ATT(which still doesn't have 3G) in my area.

Logically, rim won't bother simlocking pre-production hardware since it would make their own testing more awkward as supplies of early hardware are likely to be limited.

Looks like AT&T will have the 9520 and Verizon the 9550

That is possibly the case, but I don't think you can assume that on the basis of pre-production hardware being seen on a particular network, don't be forgetting that there were also two versions of the storm, one for verizon and one for vodafone.

Where does Sprint stand in all the Storm 2 hoopla? I haven't heard a peep, but I find it a bit odd that Sprint hasn't even given us a sniff of Storm.

Looks like Verizon will release October 14. I just posted an article on it

Seems a somewhat odd choice of device to label as overrated, it has plenty of critics and those who do like it don't go overboard claiming everything about it is wonderful.
