HAHA. Soon as taken on its own meaning; I've been hearing 'SOON' for more than a month now, LOL. I wonder how soon is "Soon".

It says 9:00 am OCT. 23rd. pending disaster it will probably drop friday the 21st. Friday before thanksgiving. Gives them a week to decide how to work black friday. Releasing black friday would be a real mistake. One glitch, one mistake and the launch would go down as a big bust.

It would be ideal for it to come out b4 black friday..

Over the weekend I stoped into a local verizon store just to look around and ask about the blackberry storm. I asked if there was any type of pre-order. They salseman said he can take down my information and they would call when they are available. He also mentioned it would be available no later than 27NOV08.

If you guys didn't notice, I just caught it out the corner of my eye, but the desktop software was 4.7 so a new update has to be coming soon. I'm guessing when that drops that the storm isn't gonna be too far behind.

Could the october 23rd date on the blackberry storm used in the blackberry storm 101 tutorial be a hint at the actual release date ???

 
 
Posted by ausch Monday, Nov 10, 2008 1291 days ago

It might of hinted to the actual release date if the date on the phone hasn't already passed.

14th November. I've had this confirmed by an instore rep.

sorry US.

 
 
Posted by gaget Tuesday, Nov 11, 2008 1290 days ago

What do you mean sorry US. Does that mean the US will not release on the same date?

No Youtube? are you serious?

"The Blackberry Bold can.
And the Storm is the same operating system version.
So the answer is: yes."

I think it will.
