Blackberry Storm 2
A reliable source has informed us that in September of 2009 Research In Motion will be releasing the Blackberry Storm 2. This comes after the go ahead was given by Verizon Wireless. The latest Storm 2 is the anticipated follow up as well as upgrade to the first touchscreen Blackberry named the Storm. The now commonly used original Blackberry Storm was Verizon’s answer to Apple’s iPhone.
Features
According to our extremely reliable source inside Verizon, Research In Motion (RIM) has made some major important improvements upon the first Smartphone, the Blackberry Storm, of the most complained about was the lack of WiFi. The new Blackberry Storm addresses not only this issue but the issue of the touchscreen display that was often criticized. Assurances have been made that RIM has addressed not only the highly criticized faults in the first Blackberry Storm but has made other important and sought after upgrades.
Business Aspects
The Blackberry Storm 2 will, of course, be using the Blackberry App World as it operating platform. Verizon’s goal is to gain an even larger market share in Apple’s iPhone business. Verizon has been struggling to effectively compete with the iPhone. With the introduction of the new Blackberry Storm 2, Verizon is hoping to utilize the new upgrades—especially the Blackberry Storm 2’s new and improved touchscreen display and more importantly, the much needed WiFi capability—to become more competitive alongside the Apple iPhone and effectively reducing the growing monopoly on Smartphone products produced by Apple.
