Blackberry Storm 2 release date

I just noticed that the price of the blackberry storm dropped $100 over the weekend.

Is this a sign that the storm 2 will be released sooner than later this year?

I now noticed on the phonearena website that the storm 2 is slated for

release oct/nov 09. Would it be worth it to wait for this new release or

get the current storm now? I like the look of the Tour but am a bigger

fan of the touchscreen that the storm has. Any suggestions??

I'd wait until the Storm 2... and possibly wait to see what initial reviews are incase there are similar software issues like the Storm had.

Wait for #2!  The Storm 1 is a crapshoot on whether or not you'll get a good one at time of purchase.  I love mine and I got lucky I guess, but don't get stuck with old hardware when the new stuff is right around the corner?  They'll have had almost a year now to right some wrongs with the first one.  As always good BB maintenance practices are vital in keeping any BB running smoothly, some more than others and I really think this is where the big disconnect is with a lot of BB customers who don't do research or read up on how to use the phone properly.  "Smartphones" are different than "dumbphones" in that they run more like a computer than a cellphone and as such require shutting down of applications after use and soft resets on a daily/weekly basis to regain memory and performance.

"research or read up on how to use the phone properly "

 

This might tell you how to remove the battery so that it will work for more than a couple of hours :smileyhappy:

R you going to follow me to every thread?  By the way, you're just conceding my point, and thank you for that.  Win Mob and BB OS are very similar yes but we already knew that.........welcome to yesterday.:smileyindifferent:
