Blackberry Storm
 

Kewl, if true.

The picture is clearing up on the new Blackberries to be released this year.

The 9000, Kickstart & now The Storm. Back last fall Balsillie said there would be 4-5 new devices in 2008 so at least 1 more is coming.

Iphone has raised the game for RIM. This is good for us bb users.

Bloop.

as big of a RIM fan as i am,

i have to give apple ALOT of credit for revolutionaizing the industry and the way consumers buy phones

for the first time since, ever... consumers went out and bought a device with no subsidy, AND renewed their term ... the device wasnt anything overly spectacular for what i needed(sold it within a month of having it), but it raised the bar for the other manufacturers AND opened consumers to new purchasing habits...

mobile_pheen....i LOVE ur avatar!!!

i think this is awesome, but....i am against the lack of physical QWERTY keyboard so lets hope it has one.

Touchscreen AND a cool name? lol

its a fashion phone with refined features

nothing ground breaking to be honest, lack of textile feedback was a huge bummer too.


haptic feedback maybe a good idea.. but my curve keypad is next to none.

except technically crack is smoked not injected. I have a feeling injecting a cocaine/baking soda combination wouldnt be the best idea.

Still, it would be rather funny if the syringe was replaced with a blackberry....kinda like the dude injecting the bb into himself.

funny concept though :thumbsup:

I dont think smoking cocaine/baking soda combination is a good idea...

its not a good idea to smoke anything:?

But HorseBerry just doesn't sound as funny... 8-)

I should clarify that I am a chem major...not a drug user :smile:

that implies there is a difference....



From a physics guy :razz:

What about "smackberry"?

smack > crack

word,
:bb:

yup...i dont like the iphone tho....probably bcuz my finger tips are too big for the letters when txting

The only way any i phone will eat into the BlacKBerry market is if they have the email PUSH system which operates the identical way the BB system does. ie immediate delivery of email, whoever your carrier happens to be. Plus the stupid decision by Jobs to tie in solely wtih AT & T rules out people like me from ever buying an i phone as I hate AT & T because of their lousy coverage and customer service!

I hate to break it to you, but push email technology 1) isn't unique to Blackberry anymore, and 2) can be done a LOT better than Blackberry does. Blackberry's BIS implementation looks ancient as far as I can tell. Of course iPhone will have better push technology. In fact, I predict that if blackberry doesn't improve their email technology, they'll be left in the dust pretty quickly.
