Woot! It’s getting closer. Some Verizon stores have already started to receive BlackBerry Storm2 9550 Display Units, and Accessories. We still have not even seen an official release from Verizon or RIM yet, but it’s expected VERY soon. So if there is any Storm chasers out (and we know there is!) sit back and relax you should be able to get their hands on the new Storm2 within the next few weeks… Until then enjoy some pictures courtesy of CrackBerry.

BlackBerry Storm 2 Rumored Release Dates!

By James on Oct 09, 2009 in BlackBerry, International Networks, Rumors, Storm 9500 Series, USA, Verizon.

Ronen from BerryReview has just posted some updates to the Storm 2 launch for both Verizon and Vodafone. Apparently Vodafone UK will be launching the Storm 2 (9520) on October 15th (just a few days away!), followed by Verizon launching the Storm 2 (9520) on October 25th or so. Now Ronen also goes on to say that he received a tip that RIM will not be launching the 9520, the 3G version of the Storm 2 in the USA. With any luck we might see the 9520 hit Canadian shores for a HSPA launch on Bell and TELUS? Although its kind of doubtful.

So I guess we will have to sit back and wait to see if these dates are true.

TELUS BlackBerry Storm Discontinued? or Just an Error?

By James on Oct 03, 2009 in BlackBerry, Canada, Rumors, Storm 9500 Series, Telus.

itemnotinstock-telus

An interesting message has popped up when you try and buy the BlackBerry Storm (9530) from TELUS. You get a message that says “An item (handset, rate plan, service or accessory) that you’ve selected is no longer available. The discontinued item has been removed from your shopping cart.”. This could mean one of three things: TELUS made an error, or maybe the Storm is actually discontinued to make room for the Storm 2?, and maybe HSPA is slowly getting ready to launch and they are making room, and discontinuing it. Either way keep an eye on the TELUS Mobility website for details.

What do you think?

BlackBerry Storm 2 heading to Verizon & Best Buy on October 25th?

By James on Oct 01, 2009 in BlackBerry, Rumors, Storm 9500 Series, USA, Verizon.

It’s no secret that the BlackBerry Storm 2 (9550) will be launching sometime this year. Well it seems that Best Buy has listed the Storm 2 in their internal inventory system as launching on October 25th. If this turns out to be true we would see an official launch from Verizon either late October or early November. My guess is that they may want to wait until November to release the Storm 2, as the original Storm was launch in November. But who knows…

Nice! Look what has joined Verizon’s inventory system. It’s the BlackBerry Storm 2 (9550) which joins the unreleased / unannounced BlackBerry Curve 8530. This is one closer step for those looking to get their hands on a Storm 2! Looks like Verizon may have it in time for the holiday season. We’re still awaiting word on releases from the Canadian networks… Stay tuned for more details when we get them.

Cocky Culture has a variety of themes, very unique and very original. We’ve posted the review of Conquest, which is a fave of mine.  The theme I’m reviewing is Rocker Chic. The theme is very rock styled and classic. And there couldn’t be a better time for a new theme, especially with the fifty percent sale!
