What the…

umm let me guess, touch screen javelin? from a freeze frame on the video i cldnt see any physical keyboard and the form factor does seem like a javelin.

lucky guess?

Verizon has to cripple the team that put policies in their handsets selection

There is nothing revolutionary about the phone except it’s a mimic or a copy of the iphone minus a lot of features
528 Mhz processor, not 624 Mhz, neutered, matter of fact they have chosen a cheaper CPU pxa930 instead of the powerful pxa320 (Samsung Omnia) which can be over clocked to a 806mhz (pxa320 has 256 kb l2 cache and a 768 kb 3d frame buffer)
Not VGA, only half the revolution! When they thought of the resolution, they saw the iphone as the limit, there is no creativity
No wide screen format to play movies nicely, only square 4:3 aspect ratio, they forgot to copy that.
No infrared port
No flash support
No Bluetooth v2.1
No video acceleration, u have to pay for data plans but u can’t play online games!
No LED, regular TFT LCD
No 16.7 millions true colors like the
No WiMax, don’t even dream about it
No wifi, no streaming (streaming is not allowed in the data plan)
No high number of channels of polyphonic (32 channels only) ringtones typically 72
Pages are slow to load and render and zoom/pan operations were slow and jerky no matter what the software version is, it will be in beta till after one year at least.
Not really built for multi tasking only small memory (128 MB RAM) even it has big Rom
No 8-megapixel camera
No stereo microphone
No stereo loudspeaker
No Hdmi
No electronic dictionary,
No Business card recognition
No finger print reader

WHAT A TEASE ! THANKS !!

LOL this is so funny. Why does everyone thing BG made this? Read what others have said … THIS WAS AIRED ON TV LIKE A MONTH OR TWO AGO. This was not a tease by this web site or any other review or tech site unless they actually paid money to air this on the television network. This was either made by RIM or by one of the carriers.

@Christopher

Dude… are you seriously that dense? I filmed that Saturday night, dropped in the audio track, and posted it. Jesus…

@ G_Mone21, you clearly don’t get the point. Because of people like you corporations can hold back technology and keep us using crap for as long as they want, charging us as much as they want when they add that feature that should have been there in the first place.

Is it just me or do the main marketing images for the Storm make it look dated, before it has been released?

ps. can someone explain to me why they think this is not a Storm? You can see the face at the last little snip that shows the front and it looks like a storm to me.

Ok now that I look at it again it is a rip off of a commercial that aired on TV.

@ Brum

I do get the point. Did you read my post, wifi would be great, BUT ITS NOT A DEAL BREAKER. If you are not in a financial position to buy a device of this nature without relying on free public wifi, that is not vzw’s problem.

@Brum

It’s just you.
