12 Jul 09 Is the BlackBerry 9550 the Storm 2?
Are you waiting for that new BlackBerry Storm 2 smartphone? Well we have some updates on that Berry although there’s nothing official just yet. It seems that the 9550 is the phone that’s going to be called the Storm 2. Here’s what we can expect from the 9550:
- CDMA 1xRTT/EVDO Rev. A
- Quad-band GSM/EDGE
- Single-band UMTS/HSDPA (2100MHz only)
- Wi-Fi b/g
- 3.2 megapixel camera
- 360×480 resolution capacitive screen
- OS 5.0
As you can see, the 9550 comes with WiFi support and we should expect Verizon and Vodafone to launch the phone by the end of the year. We’ll be looking for more information from RIM concerning the future of its touchscreen smartphones. Anyone excited about the Storm 2?

I was going to get the original Storm, then got all excited when I heard about the Storm 2. What a disappointment, there’s hardly any difference between them. I’m an Alltel customer and they’re the *only* ones with a tower in my (small) town. They’ll be completely switched to VZW in September IIRC. I think I’ll hold out and wait to see what Google Android phones they get instead. I’d love something with a 480×800 screen. 360×480 is somewhat painful to view most websites on. I’ll be using the phone more for browsing than email, and every review I’ve found shows that Android beats Blackberry for browsing anyways.
