BlackBerry Storm OS Screenshots Emerge! 
As Jim Cramer would say... Boooyahhh!!!! This is some of best BlackBerry Storm eyecandy we have seen yet. Earlier today the blog storm-reviews.co.uk posted these sweet images (more after the jump) of the BlackBerry 9500 Storm's OS. The keyboard skins are looking soooo much better (remember the Storm's first live shots?!) and we now have a better sense of what the web browser will look like. All in all, I'd have to say hot, Hot HOT!!! Nicely done GUI team. I can't wait to pound out some emails on this thing. So whaddya think?!!

i need to change my underpants
Is it wrong for a man to have sexual fantasies about a phone? Seriously this phone is whats drawing my attention more so than the Bold! Screen shots look great!
hell no my man..this fone is well deserved of the sexual fanticies! im still debating...the storm or the bold.
Whooooohooooooo!!!!! I'm sold!
I heard the screen sie will be 3.25. What is the screen size for the Iphone? About same? I know the resolution will be higher on the 'berry. Any help?
iPhone's is 3.5"... same vertical resolution 480... but it's narrower... it's a 2:3 screen instead of the Storm's 3:4 screen (in portrait mode)... i'm excited either way.. no way i'd leave VZW for att... even though i was interested in the iPhone..
SOON TO BE A BLACKBERRY VIRGIN CANT WAIT
This makes my Treo 700w look like a 1960's Star Trek communicator, old and outdated. I can't wait to get my first Blackberry! Great job RIM
FINALLY....some screen shots that make me want this thing!!
I love the pics, but the email image shows a keyboard with what I assume would be predictive text like a Pearl. That is a killer for me as 90% of what I do IS email!
I wonder if email can be done with the Storm lengthwise, which would allow for the full keyboard as seen in the first pic.
I dunno if it will happen, but I'm kinda getting a feeling you may be able to choose between a sure type style keypad and a full querty in the vertical position. I mean why not? Prob not that hard to make available to appease all bb users ya know. Wouldnt that be sweet!
you get a suretype keyboard when upright and a full length keyboard when slanted.
Some of the early "leaks" of Verizon presentations refer to the availability of using 3 keyboards - qwerty, sure-type and regular phone keypad. Most think based on the leaked info that in portrait you can choose between sure-type & keypad, in landscape you get qwerty.
I would be very surprised if you couldn't turn the phone sideways and type and email using the qwerty keyboard. RIM is smart enough to learn from early iPhone keyboard limitations. Only time will tell.
As seen on the RIM site, by rotating the Storm lengthwise.. the keyboard changes to a full qwerty keyboard... Unlike the Samsung Instinct (which I presently use) that reequires you to press a button .... kinda stupid.
So not to worry ....
Now this is what I like to see and to answer the person quesion above about having sexual fantasy its not wrong at all bro.
SWEET!! I can't wait.
So this is probably coincidence, especially these are supposedly Vodafone-branded shots, but the hands of the analog clock look awfully askew to match the Verizon logo.
Granted, not exactly like the logo but it's suggestive enough.
Even better, look at the time 11:10 or 11/10 or november 10th
After i read the "subliminal clock -verizon msg" i put on my detective hat .. and thought 11:10 november 10th ... and you know what both clock and calendar show SUN the 30th ... and won't ya know .. November has a Sunday the 30th.... i am sooo excited my b-day is on 11/12 and would just die if i had the storm in my hands for my bday ... please if i do die .. somebody get the paddles ... Im not listed as a DNR, dammit!!!
Whenever you see ANY clock or watch pictured or advertised they're always set to 11:10. I don't remember the exact reason but someone figured out that it makes the watch look "happy" or something like that.
You are kind of correct...
The time is usually set to 10:11 (not 11:10) on watch advertisements. This was started by Rolex back in the day bc it was the best time to set the watch to in order to see the most of the dial w/o out the hands obstructing the detail of the dial.
So maybe 11:10 is still possible? Sounds too good to be true if you ask me...
That phone is orgasmic
You're beautiful, you're beautiful ... you're beautiful it's true!
That is the worst song ever.
Goodbye 1st gen. iPhone and curve... hopefully we can afford the phone on that new month 2 month deal verizon finally got going...
Take a look at the ferrari pic, anyone notice something awkward? If this is a vodaphone storm then why is there 1XEV in the network bar? I smell photoshop
Maybe they have used some screen shots from the CDMA model.
If you look at most of the screen shots they are bigger than the actual screen. Missing in most of them is that void area between the screen and the buttons on the bottom of the phone. If you look at the right edge of the 1st picture (qwerty keyboard) there is a thin white line that looks to be from a poor cut and paste job.
If you hold the phone landscape style you will get the FULL Qwerty keypad. Hold the phone up & down and you get SureType.
any chance this BB will have individual application lock?....or d'ya think anyone will ever write such an add on app?
...can explain the beauty of this BB. I was sold some time ago on getting this smart phone and now I wouldn't get anything else even if the device gets delayed (which I have my fingers crossed that it does not!).
This phone is sweet looking. I can't till Crackberry.com (not those apple ass kissers BGR), gets their hands on this phone. Kevin your review will make or break if I pick up this phone.
Yes... You will be able to text in landscape view.
I am an iPhone user and Blackberry user. I definately support the BB movement 100%, however I do not beleive this will top the iPhone. Bottom line: the iPhone is for play and the BB is for business. I beleive the merging of the two into one phone is not the Storm. Just my opinon......
Normally i would definitely agree that BB is more for the business user but its clear they are trying to get into the consumer market this year with the bold and the storm. Theres a bunch of focus on the media aspect. 3.2 megapixel cam screams consumer marker.
never owned a BB, but i plan on making the storm my first
Why wouldn't this work as a consumer phone...3.25" landscape high res screen, 3.2mpx camera.....
You will be very satisfied with your Blackberry purchase.
emeuscorley has a point but i'm starting to hate at&t and they way the whole bold/storm/3g situation. As long as the gps is usable with google maps FOR FREE - i'm in.
I hope there is unlocked GPS for google maps or blackberry maps. Even if there isn't unlocked GPS, you can still use google maps with their triangulation technology. Its not as good as GPS but in larger cities its really close & its free.
WHAT ABOUT SIMPLE THINGS LIKE COPY + PASTE????
IT LOOKS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO CLICK ON THAT CHART WHEN IN QWERTY MODE!!! :/
You still have access to the Menu key when in QWERTY mode. Just push it and that will give you copy/paste and other menu options. That's one of the reasons those buttons are not on the touch screen. :)
I can explain why its 1XEV and its not because its photoshopped. RIM is based in Waterloo (North America) and this device is designed to run on the CDMA network in North America and has GSM capabilities overseas. Most likely the screen shots were taken while in North America, hence the Voda device running on CDMA
I hope they have this for Sprint. Looks like goodbye to my Pearl 8130 if they do get it. That is one sweet phone! paired up with my Simply Everything Plan and I'll be good to go!
Wasn't expecting that. I'm reconsidering my next two blackberries- now. It is definitely nice to have options.
Why only Verizon Wireless?
...of a lot of reasons I think. I've heard that AT&T has strained their relationship with RIM over the Bold delays, and iPhone fanfare. Plus, my personal opinion, AT&Ts network is inferior. Verizon and Vodafone leveraged a great deal for themselves and RIM. If quotas are met (I wonder what they are), RIM and VZW/Vodafone will blaze a whole new trail leaving AT&T feeling a bit chapped I expect. ;-)
very nice. Like the new calendar look
Because Verizon ROCKS!!!
I so can't wait for this... im ready to slam this in the face to all the iPhone users at work. I'm just wondering what the price will be like without the new every 2. I hope they have some kind of deal for people to buy it straight out...
So I'm looking at the Storm as a replacement for my 8830, and I find out that it does not have wifi. This is a fatal flaw as far as I'm concerned. I like my Blackberry, but I am having a hard time justifying not going to the iPhone now. This may be enough to push me to it.
Hello! Sorry but WiFi is a battery drain. I will stick to the EVDO 3G service for better connectivity than looking for a hotspot. I doubt people with WiFi on their cell phones even use them. I'd bet they use their provider's data service.
The Storm is going to be leagues better than my 8830 and I will jump on the chance as soon VZW releases them...going to get 2 in fact...one for my significant other as well.
Cheers.
