Ditching the keyboard for the BlackBerry Storm might seem an odd decision for RIM, the creator of the powerhouse push email phones, but don’t be fooled: the touchscreen BlackBerry Storm combines the best of both business and leisure inside its sleek, buttonless shell.
Whether you want to bust out emails on the bus or watch a movie on the move, the Storm will handle it and then some, and it’s out now on The Link, exclusive to Vodafone.
Key features
Find & Go satnav
There’s GPS built in, natch, and the phone comes with a six week free trial of Vodafone’s Find & Go satnav software, so you need never get stuck on the M25 ever again.
Clickable screen
It’s a true innovation in touchscreen tech: the Storm’s 3.2 inch touchscreen pushes down with a clear and noticeable click to confirm any action, which makes spelling correctly easy for any one with fat thumbs.
Tether the net to your laptop
Unlike many HSDPA phones, the Storm will let you sling its super fast mobile web connection to a laptop, so you don’t need to shell out on a dongle too.
Cut and paste
It doesn’t sound like much, but the ability to cut and paste on a mobile is rare. The Storm has it though, so you’ll be able to juggle stupidly long URLs and email addresses with ease.
Stereo Bluetooth
RIM hasn’t just bumped off the buttons: it’s slashed all the wires too. You’ll be able to listen to all your choons in stereo sound via Bluetooth, so you won’t rip your earbuds out of your head everytime you reach into your pocket for your wallet.
