There were several rumors of the Storm 2 hitting the streets with "MiFi" capability, such as this rumor right here:

Storm 2 hitting Verizon with 'MiFi capability?'

...and if the rumor were true, I would currently have a Storm 2 right at this very moment.

However, what I think was more likely, was that some Verizon functionary got the 'M' and 'W' keys juxtaposed whilst typing in the specs for the new Storm 2 (it's an honest mistake--I mean, an 'M' does look like a 'W' on its back). Hence, the rumor.
