Blackberry Thunder=Storm

Recently we reviewed Blackberry’s first attempt at touch screen technology with the Thunder. We have just learned that name has been officially changed to Storm and will be released exclusively by Verizon. Details of the phone are slowly being released such as it being slightly heavier than the iphone; it will also include a video camera and the cut and paste technology that separates Blackberry from all other smart phones on the market today. Freshtoid will keep you updated with info as we hear, but this is definitely the front runner for phone of the year at this point.

Blackberry Thunder

I think it is appropriate that the first official post for Freshtoid is Blackberry’s new Thunder. The Bold has not even been released yet and it is already old news. At the pace of this technology, you can count on Freshtoid for the freshest and highest quality commentary on the internet, so as the Thunder starts to cause a media storm, be sure to save us on your Blackberry favorites and keep hitting that ‘r’ button for all the latest buzz. For those using Blackberry’s to track Freshtoid, your device will soon be outdated; the new Blackberry will be the company’s first venture into the touchscreen market and will make it a direct competitor with Apple’s iPhone. Now Freshtoid has not physically touched one of the phones yet (we are expecting samples in the mail soon…), and there is some debate as to the authenticity of these pictures, but based on the names alone, which would you rather have in your pocket THUNDER or iPhone? Freshtoid is going to have to go with Thunder and when you see these pictures, you will understand why. For all the specs and to see what others are saying click here
