Anyone else interested in this phone? I just broke my third LG chocolate in 3 months and am waiting for the storm to come out, hopefully its even worth the wait, price isn't bad if this report is accurate. I am not much of a gadget person but all of verizons phones right now seem kind of crappy rip offs of better phones. From Yahoo! News NEW YORK (Reuters) - Verizon Wireless said on Thursday that it would sell the touch-screen BlackBerry Storm for $199.99, after a rebate -- in line with pricing for its popular rival, Apple Inc's (AAPL.O) iPhone. The wireless venture of Verizon Communications (VZ.N) and Vodafone Group Plc (VOD.L) said the first touch-screen phone from Research In Motion (RIM.TO) would cost $199.99 after a $50 rebate for customers who sign a new two-year service contract.
I was looking at replacing my cell w/ one of the blackberrys after new years. I think its called the blackberry global. I'll watch out for this one. If you can trade up or use a rebate, the cost of the phone is almost nothing.
