Now that Microsoft has updated their mobile version of Bing, it would appear that Verizon is pushing this version of Bing onto the BlackBerry Storm.

Unfortunately, a recent report complained that this BlackBerry version of Bing was “slow and unresponsive”. This is one of several apps being “pushed” onto the Storm which includes YouTube, VZW Tones, V Cast Video, and a Verizon version of Slacker Radio. Perhaps BlackBerry users can learn to warm up to Bing.

BlackBerry owners will be happy to hear that RIM is interested to hire a “WebKit Developer.” That means the Canadian company is considering developing a totally new mobile browser. It’s actually not a secret anymore as RIM did purchase Torch Mobile a while ago, which happens to be the company that created the WebKit-based Iris browser. Apparently that’s not enough and RIM needs a more qualified WebKit developer to help out with the cause. A new browser for the BlackBerry OS will definitely be a blessing so if you happen to have the needed skills then go ahead and apply for the job! We’ve been waiting for a new mobile Internet browser for BlackBerry smartphones for too long now.

Personalization for mobile phones has become a common need but the problem is not all phones may have that privilege. And while we have heard personalized MailTones for the iPhone some days ago, the Blackberry smartphones now have a version of its own. This was made possible by Electric Pocket, providing an array of tones which should help Blackberry phone owners assign preferred tones for people located in their address book who send them emails.

MailTones is compatible for the BlackBerry Storm, Tour, Curve, Bold and Pearl, and is now available at MailTones.com and all MobiHand-powered stores for $2.99.

Stop dreaming about an HTC HD2 capable to run Android. HTC will not make it for you as the company wants to give Windows Mobile a fighting chance. According to Peter Chou, HTC could make an HD2 smartphone running Android but it won’t as it wants to “get excitement about Windows Mobile back.” I estimate excitement to return sometime next year when Microsoft will launch the all-new Windows Mobile 7.

In the mean time we will focus on Android phones, iPhones and new BlackBerry handsets out there. Wouldn’t you agree? And don’t worry, HTC will launch new Android phones soon, even if they won’t look like the HTC HD2.

The popular and long-waited BlackBerry Storm2 is officially available online, at the Verizon website, for a mere price of $180 after the mail-in rebate of $100 and after signing a 2-year contract.

The Verizon BlackBerry Storm2 9550 only has one problem when comparing it to other BlackBerry devices, which is the exclusion of Wi-Fi… Taking in consideration the early news that 409 million devices feature WiFi, I guess there won’t be many more smart phones on the future that don’t have WiFi.

Anyhow, for BlackBerry lovers this latest model will surely please them thanks to the improved processor, memory, and other details.

Verizon hasn’t announced the BlackBerry Storm 2 although Vodafone did. What’s more strange, Verizon seems to want to start selling the BlackBerry Storm 2 on October 28 which is precisely the day when Big Red and Motorola are going to unveil to the world the Motorola Droid.

Will the BlackBerry Storm 2 live in the shadow of the Droid? The phone will be available for $179.99 after $100 mail-in rebate with a 2-year contract. 1-year contracts will also be available but the price for the Storm 2 will go to up to $249.99. The smartphone will also be available without a contract for $539.99 and it all starts on October 28.

The following question is pretty obvious, so here it goes, what are you going to purchase on October 28? The Motorola Droid or the BlackBerry Storm 2.
