Storm 2 accessories appear at Best Buy

In a not so surprising turn of events, accessories for the BlackBerry Storm 2 having been showing up in Best Buy locations. Specifcally silicone gel skins have been spotted by many people over the weekend as the tips email is full of pics from within Best Buy.

Retail outlets such as Best Buy and Future shop are known for marking their material by codename rather then "launch" name for the devices. As seen above the Storm 2 aka Odin aka 9550 is displayed as all three here, but other pics show it under indivdual names as well. Forum users have also noticed that Best Buy has been removing Storm 1 information and dummy display devices from shelves, as Storm 2 launch date gets ever so close. Thanks to everyone who sent in pics!

I'm gonna immediately hurl my "spinning clock" Storm 1 against the nearest wall as soon as I get the Storm 2!

Any idea if storm 1 accessories will fit storm 2? Im talking about cases mainly, and maybe batteries. Charger should still be micro usb right?

By: richardpandy | Date: Sun, 10/11/2009 - 23:09

Yeah - still Micro.

only the charger will be the same, the size of the s2 is actually different and the shape too

By: Nashcat | Date: Mon, 10/12/2009 - 05:39

Screen Size won't be the same???

I have been wondering if the battery from the storm can be used in the second storm

Now can we have some Tour cases as well? ;)

So far I've seen 3 different name variations for this device (of small importance I know...I just find it odd).

Storm 2
Storm2
Storm II

and this is the first time I have actually seen Odin on anything "official".

I can hardley wait to get rid of the POS and get the new Storm/Odin
