The BlackBerry Storm Coming Soon

Probably the best “iPhone Killer” out there, the Blackberry Storm’s “ClickThrough” feature is what sets it apart from the rest.

The Storm’s whole screen clicks down when you hit a button. It gives you more of a confirmation than normal touchscreens, so you will be more likely to hit exactly what you meant to. It does take some getting used to having the whole screen move, especially if already have the hang of touchscreens on your current phone.

The Storm features a 3.25-inch diagonal display with a 480×360 pixel resolution and supports 65,000 colors. It measures 4.4 inches tall by 2.4 inches wide by 0.5 inch deep. The Storm comes with 1 GB of built-in memory plus another 8GB on the included memory card. Cards up to 16 GB are supported.

There’s a full HTML Web browser (no Flash), with support for attachment downloads and video streaming. The Storm will also support Verizon’s V Cast Music and Mobile TV services. Other options include Bluetooth 2.0 with support for stereo Bluetooth headsets and dial-up networking and GPS but no Wi-Fi.

Time.com says the Blackberry Storm will be hitting stores in November. The actual release date and price has not been confirmed yet.
