Default Touch Screen BB for Verizon end of 2010??

So my homegirl just told me:

"Just came 4rm VZW. Manager stated that they have 10 new phones lined up to be released towards the end of the year. 1 of them is ur anticipated BB Torch but its gonna be called something else. Same concept; touch screen w/ slide out keypad. As far as the iphone, July 2011. "

Wonder if there's any truth to this?? I was ABOUT to switch to Droid when my contract is eligible for renewal this upcoming November since I really want a phone where I can browse the internet with ease (I have a tour), but after my homegirl told me this, I've decided to wait. I'm a blackberry lover & a loyal Verizon customer and I was sooooo pissed when Torch came out for AT&T!!! I would LOVE a touch screen blackberry that's NOT a storm.. so *crosses fingers*, I hope it's true!!!!

As for the IPhone 4, i was ONLY considering it, IF it was released for Verizon. But, if blackberry comes out with something that's CLOSE to being compared to an IPhone, then I'M ALL FOR IT!!!

Maybe its the highly anticipated BB Homegirl that's been under wraps for a few years.... BB Style and now the Homegirl, these names just keep getting better and better.

I'll probably pick up the BB Torch/Homegirl too when it comes out. Can't be left waiting on a 4g Storm for another, who knows how many months.

I'm still thinking that device pic we saw that everyone thinks is the S3/4 was a slider phone, so maybe that's what homegirl is talking about.

This homegirls knows a lot, she seems like the next Salomondrin....

Torch sucks. Low resolution small screen, slow laggy processor (compared to top end Droids and iPhone4), thick body due to slide out keyboard. If that is what Verizon has to replace the storm with...then it will be a major FAIL.

I have been a Storm user since November 21, 2008...launch day and have been hoping that RIM would really compete in the smart phone arena. So far they have not taken the smart phone user seriously. We saw a leaked touch screen device that looked to have a 4" screen with a track pad. If they brought something like that to Verizon I might consider it. At this point...the Motorolla T2 is looking to be the best thing that Verizon has coming - in January. I will wait until after CES to make my phone decision.
