You must already be aware that some of RIM’s latest toys will be running BlackBerry OS 5.0 from the first day. So what happens to everyone else that won’t get a BlackBerry 9700 Bold or the BlackBerry Storm 2 in the following weeks? Well we have great news for you. RIM is apparently going to make OS 5.0 available in the near future for everyone that currently owns one of the other BlackBerry smartphones.

Verizon Wireless will be the first carrier to make the BlackBerry OS 5.0 available to BlackBerry Storm owners. Starting with tomorrow evening, or Monday at the latest, OS 5.0 will be available to Storm users so get your phones in order. You’ll also need Desktop Manager installed on your computer as this OS update is not coming over the air.
