BlackBerry Storm 2

King James · 05-27-2009, 08:12 AM

Here is a review from engadget. Just got a phone not too long ago so won't be getting this, at launch anyway, but it does look sweet. I like some of the improvements made from the first-gen Storm.

Figures that I just got the Storm, now they're coming out with a 2nd gen. Oh well. I like the clicking feature so I'm not sure that I'd even enjoy the newer one.

I like the clicking as well so I will keep my 1st gen.

Makes me wonder though if enough people complained about it.... or if there was a failure rate that was appearing.... or if they just wanted to mimic the iphone more...

Or all of the above

I cannot wait for a more in depth review, where they can actually use the phone! Changes to appearance are minor but I like the idea of the new touch screen. I had some experience with the sure-touch keypad and liked it. Once you got used to actually having to press down on the screen it wasn't bad, but I would still prefer just tapping.

That clicking drove people nuts...and it felt cheap.

Hmm...I will be looking into this. I am getting very tired of my curve.
